Also proposed a species name Paradoxichthys garibaldianus for his specimen if it was found to differ from rissoanus, but no distinguishing features were given, and garibaldianus is unavailable. •Objective synonym of Polyacanthonotus Bleeker 1874 -- (McDowell 1973:158 [ref. 24539], Wheeler 1973:257 [ref. 7190]).

Current status: Valid as Polyacanthonotus Bleeker 1874. Notacanthidae.

Teratichthys Giglioli [E. H.] 1882:535 Masc. Name technically published in synonymy, as an alternate name for Paradoxichthys "should that term be pre-occupied." Apparently never made available. Also objectively invalid; preoccupied by Teratichthys König 1825 in fossil fishes. •In the synonymy of Polyacanthonotus Bleeker 1874 -- (McDowell 1973:158 [ref. 24539], Wheeler 1973:257 [ref. 7190]).

Tiluropsis Roule [L.] 1911:734 Fem. Apparently not available, described without species and none referred to it subsequently; based on a larva. Tiluropsis used by Smith 1989:957 [ref. 13285] for reference for unidentified larvae in Notacanthiformes. Perhaps validated later (see references in Smith 1989:957 [ref. 13285]). Notacanthidae.

Notacanthidae.

Zanotacanthus Gill [T. N.] 1877:883 Masc. Notacanthus rissoanus De Filippi & Verany 1857. Type by monotypy. •Objective synonym of Polyacanthonotus Bleeker 1874 -- (McDowell 1973:158 [ref. 24539], Wheeler 1973:256 [ref. 7190]). Current status: Synonym of Polyacanthonotus Bleeker 1874. Notacanthidae.
