Species in the genus Acanthodoras: [ 10 ] records

americanus, Cataphractus Lacepède [B. G. E.] 1803:124, 127 [Histoire naturelle des poissons (Lacepède) v. 5; ref. 4930] America, especially the Carolinas [U.S.A.] [in error]. Lectotype: BMNH 1853.11.12.193. Type catalog: Ferraris 2007:167 [ref. 29155]. An unneeded new name for and objective synonym of Silurus cataphractus Linnaeus 1758 (to avoid Strickland tautonomy).

Also was based on previous authors (Linnaeus, etc.), but apparently independent of Cataphractus americanus Bloch & Schneider 1801 as no reference was made to Bloch & Schneider.
