ommatus, Paralichthys Jordan [D. S.] & Gilbert [C. H.] 1883:824 [Bulletin of the United States National Museum No. 16; ref. 2476] Pensacola, Florida, U.S.A. Based on style ("nom. sp. nov." instead of "sp. nov.") and the footnote on p. 825, this name is regarded as a replacement name for Ancylopsetta quadrocellata Gill 1864, secondarily preoccupied by Platessa quadrocellata Storer 1847 ("which is also a species of Paralichthys"). The substitute name is not in use and the junior homonym is not to be rejected on grounds of that replacement [ICZN Art. 59.3]. Type locality is the same as for quadrocellata Gill 1864. •Valid as Ancylopsetta ommata (Jordan & Gilbert 1883) -- (Carvalho-Filho 2023:272 [ref. 40480]). •Synonym of Ancylopsetta quadrocellata Gill 1864 -- (Gutherz 1966:469 [ref. 9034], Munroe 2003:1913 [ref. 27118]). Replacement Name. Current status: Synonym of Ancylopsetta quadrocellata Gill 1864. Paralichthyidae. Distribution: Western Atlantic: Gulf of Mexico to western Atlantic off southern U.S.A. Habitat: marine.

quadrocellatus, Ancylopsetta Gill [T. N.] 1864:224 [Proceedings of the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia v. 16 (no. 4); ref. 5773] Pensacola, Florida, U.S.A. Holotype (unique): USNM 8081. See account of Paralichthys ommatus Jordan & Gilbert 1883; Gill's name has been replaced, but not needed anymore. The substitute name is not in use and the junior secondary homonym of Platessa quadrocellata Storer 1847 is not to be rejected on grounds of that replacement [ICZN Art. 59.3]. Originally as quadrocellatus but change to quadrocellata is necessary for gender agreement. •Synonym of Ancylopsetta ommata (Jordan & Gilbert 1883) -- (Carvalho-Filho 2023:272 [ref. 40480]). •Valid as Ancylopsetta quadrocellata Gill 1864 -- (Gutherz 1966:469 [ref. 9034], Gutherz 1967:14 [ref. 23862], Robins & Ray 1986:289 [ref. 23100], Boschung 1992:172 [ref. 23239], Castro-Aguirre et al. 1999:473 [ref. 24550], Munroe 2003:1913 [ref. 27118], Nelson et al. 2004:179 [ref. 27807], McEachran & Fechhelm 2005:838 [ref. 28815], Page et al. 2013:184 [ref. 32708]). 2°Homonym. Current status: Valid as Ancylopsetta quadrocellata Gill 1864. Paralichthyidae. Distribution: Western Atlantic: North Carolina (U.S.A.) south to northern Brazil, including Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean Sea. Habitat: marine.
