Species that contain: Poropuntius and bolovenensis and bolovenensis [ 4 ] records

bolovenensis, Poropuntius Roberts [T. R.] 1998:124, Figs. 5-6 [Natural History Bulletin of the Siam Society v. 46 (no. 1); ref. 23549] Xe Nam Noi, 300 meters downstream from primary dam site of Xe Nam Noi-Xe-Pian, Bolovens Plateau, Sekong watershead, southern Laos. Lectotype: CAS 94251. Paralectotypes: CAS 94252-54 (110, 1, 89); plus specimens listed under the other 3 morphs. Described as a species on p. 124, as the first of 4 trinominal morphs on p. 125. Roberts states (p. 124), "In this paper intraspecific trophic morphs are formally described and named as species-level trinominals." It appears Roberts apparently attempted to make these trinominal names fall within the Code of Zoological Nomenclature; but the third name in a trinomen must not be a morph. Roberts even states on p. 125, ..only in the nominate morph or subspecies of (P. bolovenensis). These morphs are considered infrasubspecific and unavailable by Kottelat 2000:46 [ref. 25040], but they were available infrasubspecific names under the Code in force in 1998, but they apparently were not validly treated as a subspecies or species in time to be available under the 2000 edition of the Code. Lectotype established by Kottelat 2000:46 [ref. 25040] who considered all specimens of the morphs as syntypes but selected Roberts' "Holotype" for the morph bolovenensis as the lectotype. Kottelat 2000 [ref. 25040] provided new names for two of Roberts' morphs, but retained the same types. •Valid as Poropuntius bolovenensis Roberts 1998 -- (Kottelat 2000:46 [ref. 25040], Kottelat 2001:69 [ref. 25780], Kottelat 2013:143 [ref. 32989], Kang et al. 2016: 375 [ref. 40055]).

Holotype: CAS 94255. Paratypes: CAS 94256 (1). New name for infrasubspecific Poropuntius bolovenensis morpha acuticeps of Roberts 1988. •Valid as Poropuntius consternans Kottelat 2000 -- (Kottelat 2001:69 [ref. 25780], Kottelat 2013:144 [ef. 32989]).

lobocheiloides, Poropuntius Kottelat [M.] 2000:48 [Journal of South Asian Natural History v. 5 (no. 1); ref. 25040] Xe Nam Noi 300 meters downstream from main dam site for Xe Nam Noi-Xe Pian hydropower scheme, Boloven Plateau, Sekong watershed, Laos. Holotype: CAS 94257. Paratypes: CAS 94258 (10), CMK 16035 (8). New name for infrasubspecific Poropuntius bolovenensis morpha glaridostoma of Roberts 1988. •Valid as Poropuntius lobocheiloides Kottelat 2000 -- (Kottelat 2001:71 [ref. 25780], Kottelat 2013:145 [ref. 32989]). •Synonym of Poropuntius bolovenensis Roberts 1998 -- (Kang et al. 2016: 375 [ref. 40055]). Current status: Synonym of Poropuntius bolovenensis Roberts 1998. Cyprinidae: Cyprininae. Habitat: freshwater.

solitus, Poropuntius Kottelat [M.] 2000:48, Fig. 15 [Journal of South Asian Natural History v. 5 (no. 1); ref. 25040] Huay Makchan-gnai (Xe Nam Noy basin), south of Ban Taot, at turnoff to Xe Nam Noy Project, on road from Pakse to Attapu, 15°04'14"N, 106°32'33"E, Champasak Province, Laos.
