Species that contain: Callyodon and sordidus [ 4 ] records

albipunctatus, Callyodon Seale [A.] 1910:526 [The Philippine Journal of Science Section A v. 4 (no. 6) (for 1909); ref. 4000] Sitanki Island, Jolo Archipelago, Philippines. Holotype (unique): BSMP 4876 (apparently destroyed). •Synonym of Scarus sordidus Forsskål 1775 -- (Randall & Bruce 1983:31 [ref. 5412], Choat & Randall 1986:221 [ref. 8099]). •Synonym of Chlorurus sordidus (Forsskål 1775) -- (Parenti & Randall 2000:53 [ref. 24943], Kottelat 2013:380 [ref. 32989]). •Synonym of Chlorurus spilurus (Valenciennes 1840). Current status: Synonym of Chlorurus spilurus (Valenciennes 1840). Labridae. Habitat: marine.

bipallidus, Callyodon Smith [J. L. B.] 1956:936 [Annals and Magazine of Natural History (Series 12) v. 8 (no. 96) (art. 107); ref. 12527] Natal to Malindi, Zanzibar, Pemba, Mafia, Aldabra to Seychelles, western Indian Ocean. Syntypes: (several localities) SAIAB [formerly RUSI] 67 (1). Also described as new in Smith 1956:5, Pl. 41 (fig. D) as Xanothon bipallidus. Parenti & Randall 2000:53 [ref. 24943] treated both species as independent, but that is not true. Dates are very close in time, and further research may be needed. A holotype is established for the description as Xanothon bipallidus but was not located in 1956; no type was established in ref. 12527; the holotype in ref. 4104 would make the best lectotype if the description above was first. Kottelat (2013) indicates that ref. 4104 appeared earlier. •Synonym of Chlorurus sordidus (Forsskål 1775) -- (Randall 2005:451 [ref. 28239], Kottelat 2013:380 [ref. 32989], Fricke et al. 2018:296 [ref. 35805], Randall 2022:273 [ref. 39936]). Current status: Synonym of Chlorurus sordidus (Forsskål 1775). Labridae. Habitat: marine.

cyanogrammus, Callyodon Jordan [D. S.] & Seale [A.] 1906:330, Fig. 63 [Bulletin of the Bureau of Fisheries v. 25 (for 1905); ref. 2497] Apia, Upolu Island, Samoa. Holotype: USNM 51756. •Synonym of Scarus sordidus Forsskål 1775 -- (Randall & Bruce 1983:31 [ref. 5412], Choat & Randall 1986:221 [ref. 8099]). •Synonym of Chlorurus sordidus (Forsskål 1775) -- (Parenti & Randall 2000:53 [ref. 24943]). •Synonym of Chlorurus spilurus (Valenciennes 1840). Current status: Synonym of Chlorurus spilurus (Valenciennes 1840). Labridae. Habitat: marine.

rostratus, Callyodon Seale [A.] 1910:524 [The Philippine Journal of Science Section A v. 4 (no. 6) (for 1909); ref. 4000] Zamboanga, Mindanao Island, Philippines. Holotype (unique): BSMP 2928 (apparently lost).

Current status: Synonym of Chlorurus spilurus (Valenciennes 1840). Labridae. Habitat: marine.
