Acanthurus (subgenus of Chaetodon) Forsskål [P. S.] in Niebuhr 1775:59 [Descriptiones animalium (Forsskål); ref. 1351] Masc. Teuthis hepatus Linnaeus 1766. Type by subsequent designation. Authorship according to Fricke 2008:54 [ref. 30182]. Type designated by Desmarest 1856:246 [ref. 17401] -- see Whitley 1939:224 [ref. 25866] but Whitley has wrong date for Desmarest. Acanthura is a misspelling. See Kottelat (2013) for problems with the type species. •Valid as Acanthurus Forsskål 1775 -- (Randall 1956:166 [ref. 12221], Desoutter 1973:455 [ref. 7203], Lindberg & Krasyukova 1975:235 [ref. 7348], Leis & Richards 1984:548 [ref. 13669], Kishimoto Pin Masuda et al. 1984:230 [ref. 6441], Desoutter in Whitehead et al. 1986:962 [ref. 13676], Randall 1986:812 [ref. 5706], Allen & Ayling 1987 [ref. 13388], Tyler et al. 1989:37 [ref. 13460], Blot & Tyler 1990:18 [ref. 19415], Winterbottom 1993:36 [ref. 20307], Guiasu & Winterbottom 1993:300 [ref. 21023], Castro-Aguirre et al. 1999:458 [ref. 24550], Kuiter & Debelius 2001:19 [ref. 26232], Randall 2001:3655 [ref. 26301], Randall 2003:1802 [ref. 27098], Allen et al. 2006:1733 [ref. 29094], Craig 2008:65 [ref. 29767], Fricke 2008:54 [ref. 30182], Randall et al. 2011:265 [ref. 31249], Bernal & Rocha 2011:63 [ref. 31336], Kottelat 2013:441 [ref. 32989], Parin et al. 2014:507 [ref. 33547], Fricke et al. 2015:10 [ref. 33930], Struthers 2015:1592 [ref. 34302], Carpenter et al. 2017:33 [ref. 35143], Motomura et al. 2017:205 [ref. 35490], Fricke et al. 2018:351 [ref. 35805], Golani & Fricke 2018:166 [ref. 36273], Brown et al. 2019:180 [ref. 36444], Fricke et al. 2019:299 [ref. 36673]). Current status: Valid as Acanthurus Forsskål 1775. Acanthuridae.

Acronurus Gronow [L. T.] in Gray 1854:190 [Catalogue of fish collected and described by Laurence Theodore Gronow; ref. 1911] Masc. Acronurus fuscus Gronow in Gray 1854 (= Teuthis hepatus Linnaeus 1766). Type by subsequent designation. Earliest type designation not researched; three included species; possibly by Eschmeyer 1990:14. •Synonym of Acanthurus Forsskål 1775 -- (Randall 1955:364 [ref. 13648]; Kottelat 2013:442 [ref. 32989]). Current status: Synonym of Acanthurus Forsskål 1775. Acanthuridae.

Harpurina (subgenus of Hepatus) Fowler [H. W.] & Bean [B. A.] 1929:210, 253 [Bulletin of the United States National Museum No. 100, v. 8; ref. 1476] Fem. Hepatus nubilus Fowler & Bean 1929. Type by original designation (also monotypic). •Synonym of Acanthurus Forsskål 1775 -- (Randall 1955:364 [ref. 13648], Kottelat 2013:442 [ref. 32989]). Current status: Synonym of Acanthurus Forsskål 1775. Acanthuridae.

Hepatus Artedi [P.] in Röse 1793:113 [Petri Artedi Angermannia; ref. 3833] Masc. Based on Hepatos Aristotle and other authors which probably is Labrus hepatus Linnaeus 1758. •In the synonymy of Serranus Cuvier 1816. Current status: Synonym of Serranus Cuvier 1816. Serranidae.

Paracanthurus Bleeker [P.] 1863:252 [Nederlandsch Tijdschrift voor de Dierkunde v. 1; ref. 402] Masc. Teuthis hepatus of Bloch & Schneider (not of Linnaeus) 1801. Type by monotypy. According to Fowler (MS) this is based on a misidentified type species, not Teuthis hepatus Linnaeus; Randall 1986 says based on hepatus Linnaeus in part. •Valid as Paracanthurus Bleeker 1863 -- (Kishimoto in Masuda et al. 1984:230 [ref. 6441], Randall 1986:817 [ref. 5706], Tyler et al. 1989:37 [ref. 13460], Blot & Tyler 1990:28 [ref. 19415], Winterbottom 1993:36 [ref. 20307], Guiasu & Winterbottom 1993:300 [ref. 21023], Kuiter & Debelius 2001:69 [ref. 26232], Randall 2001:3654 [ref. 26301], Allen et al. 2006:1743 [ref. 29094], Kottelat 2013:440 [ref. 32989], Fricke et al. 2018:356 [ref. 35805], Fricke et al. 2019:305 [ref. 36673]). Current status: Valid as Paracanthurus Bleeker 1863. Acanthuridae.

Paracentropristis Klunzinger [C. B.] 1884:16 [Die Fische des Rothen Meeres; ref. 2625] Fem. Labrus hepatus Linnaeus 1758. Type by monotypy. Paracentropristes as used by Jordan 1919:358 [ref. 4904] is an incorrect subsequent spelling. •Synonym of Serranus Cuvier 1816, but a valid subgenus Paracentropristis -- (Klausewitz 1989:261 [ref. 13650], Iwamoto & Wirtz 2018:4 [ref. 36189]). •Synonym of Serranus Cuvier 1816 -- (Tortonese 1973:355 [ref. 7192], Castro-Aguirre et al. 1999:267 [ref. 24550], Parenti & Randall 2020:122 [ref. 37354]). Current status: Synonym of Serranus Cuvier 1816. Serranidae.

Teuthis Linnaeus [C.] 1766:507 [Systema naturae sive regna tria naturae v. 1 (pt 1); ref. 2786] Fem. Teuthis hepatus Linnaeus 1766. Apparently under review by ICZN; see Taylor 1970 [ref. 6162] and Woodland 1972 [ref. 6163] and 1973 [ref. 6164]; at one time on Official List (Opinion 93). As Theuthys, Teutis, Teuthys, and Theuthis in early literature. Teuthys Linck 1790 on Official Index as an incorrect subsequent spelling (supplement to Opinion 56). See Kotelat 2013 [ref. 32995] for current comments on the cases. •Synonym of Acanthurus Forsskål 1775 -- (Randall 1955:363 [ref. 13648], Desoutter 1973:455 [ref. 7203]). •Synonym of Siganus Forsskål 1775 -- (Woodland 1990:16 [ref. 19220] with remarks, Kottelat 2013:339 [ref. 32989]). •Synonym of Siganus Fabricius 1775. Current status: Synonym of Siganus Fabricius 1775. Siganidae.

Theutis Bonnaterre [J. P.] 1788:lv, 156 [Tableau encyclopédique et méthodique des trois règnes de la nature... Ichthyologie; ref. 4940] Masc. Theutis hepatus Linnaeus 1766. Type by subsequent designation. Earliest type designation not researched; 2 included species. •Synonym of Acanthurus Forsskål 1775 -- (Desoutter 1973:455 [ref. 7203]). Current status: Synonym of Acanthurus Forsskål 1775. Acanthuridae.

Theutys Goüan [A.] 1770:105 [Historia piscium; ref. 1863] Masc. Teuthis hepatus Linnaeus 1766. Type by subsequent designation. Appeared without species, type as given by Fowler & Bean 1929:207 [ref. 1476]. Perhaps (on p. 105) just a misspelling for Teuthis Linnaeus as used by Goüan on p. 163 where the description of Theutys would have appeared. •Synonym of Acanthurus Forsskål 1775 -- (Desoutter 1973:455 [ref. 7203]). Current status: Synonym of Acanthurus Forsskål 1775. Acanthuridae.
