Genera that contain: Ephippus [ 4 ] records

Drepanichthys (subgenus of Ephippus) Bonaparte [C. L.] 1831:172 [Saggio di una distribuzione metodica degli animali vertebrati; ref. 4978] Masc. Chaetodon punctatus Linnaeus 1758. Type by being a replacement name. Appeared as a section under Ephippus as "Drepanichthys, N. (Drepanis, C. nec Orn.)". Unneeded replacement for Drepane Cuvier 1831. On Official Index (Opinion 1046). •Objective synonym of Drepane Cuvier 1831 -- (Kottelat 2013:365 [ef. 32989]). Current status: Synonym of Drepane Cuvier 1831. Drepaneidae.

Ephippus Cuvier [G.] 1816:335 [Le Règne Animal; ref. 993] Masc. Chaetodon orbis Bloch 1787. Type by subsequent designation. Type as given by Jordan 1917:105 [ref. 2407]. Type possibly E. argus of Bloch as designated by Bleeker 1876:302 [ref. 448] for Cuvier 1817 [=1816] but not Cuvier 1829 which would upset current usage of Scatophagus. Jordan indicated that type was restricted by Cuvier & Valenciennes 1831 [ref. 4881], but they apparently did not fix the type. ICZN Case 3528 (Kottelat 2010:303 [ref. 31206]) fixes the type (ICZN 2012) as orbis. •Synonym of Chaetodipterus Lacepède 1801 -- (Smith 1986:605 [ref. 5712]). •Valid as Ephippus Cuvier 1816 -- (Hayashi in Masuda et al. 1984:181 [ref. 6441], Heemstra 2001:3612 [ref. 26298], Kottelat 2010:303 [ref. 31206], Kottelat 2013:437 [ref. 32989]). Current status: Valid as Ephippus Cuvier 1816. Ephippidae.

Unneeded replacement for Ephippus Cuvier 1816, not preoccupied by Ephippium Latreille 1802 in Diptera. On page 160 of separate. •Objective synonym of Ephippus Cuvier 1816.
