Abron Gistel [J.] 1848:X [Naturgeschichte des Thierreichs; ref. 1822] Neut. Silurus lima Bloch & Schneider 1801. Type by being a replacement name. Replacement for Platystoma Valenciennes [= Agassiz 1829], preoccupied by Platystoma Meigen 1803 in Diptera. •Synonym of Sorubim Cuvier 1829 -- (Lundberg & Littmann in Reis et al. 2003:442 [ref. 27061], Littmann 2007:2 [ref. 29028], Ferraris 2007:342 [ref. 29155], Grant 2021:127 [ref. 38702]). Current status: Synonym of Sorubim Cuvier 1829. Pimelodidae.

Platystoma Agassiz [L.] in Spix & Agassiz 1829:10, 23 [Selecta genera et species piscium quos in itinere per Brasiliam; ref. 13] Neut. Silurus lima Bloch & Schneider 1801. Type by subsequent designation. Type designated by Jordan 1917:131 [ref. 2407]. Objectively invalid; preoccupied by Platystoma Meigen 1803 in Diptera; Abron Gistel 1848 is a replacement (through Platystoma Valenciennes). •In the synonymy of Sorubim Cuvier 1829 -- (see Kottelat 1988:80 [ref. 13380], Lundberg & Littmann in Reis et al. 2003:442 [ref. 27061], Littmann 2007:2 [ref. 29028], Ferraris 2007:342 [ref. 29155], Grant 2021:127 [ref. 38702]). 1°Homonym. Current status: Synonym of Sorubim Cuvier 1829. Pimelodidae.

Sorubim Agassiz [L.] in Spix & Agassiz 1829:24 [Selecta genera et species piscium quos in itinere per Brasiliam; ref. 13] Masc. Silurus lima Bloch & Schneider 1801. Type by subsequent designation (and monotypy). First appeared in synonymy in Spix and Agassiz as above, but made available back to that authorship and date because of use as a valid name by Bleeker 1862:10 [ref. 393]; Bleeker included one species lima and designated it type. Treated as masculine, Art. 30.2.4. Spelled Sorubium by Swainson 1838. •Valid as Sorubim Agassiz 1829 -- (Stewart 1986:668 [ref. 5211], Burgess 1989:282 [ref. 12860], Lundberg et al. 1991:842 [ref. 19175], de Pinna 1998:314 [ref. 23847], Britski et al. 1999:105 [ref. 24147], Littmann et al. 2000:901 [ref. 25063]). •See Kottelat 1988:80 who dates to Cuvier 1829. •Synonym of Sorubim Cuvier 1829 -- (Lundberg & Littmann in Reis et al. 2003:442 [ref. 27061], Littmann 2007:2 [ref. 29028] as Spix and Agassiz, Ferraris 2007:342 [ref. 29155] with authorship as Spix & Agassiz, Grant 2021:127 [ref. 38702]). Current status: Synonym of Sorubim Cuvier 1829. Pimelodidae.

Sorubim Cuvier [G.] 1829:293 [Le Règne Animal (Edition 2) v. 2; ref. 995] Masc. Silurus lima Bloch & Schneider 1801. Type by subsequent designation. See analysis by Kottelat 1988:78, 80 [ref. 13380] who indicates that Sorubim Cuvier predates Sorubim Agassiz 1829. Kottelat regards the type as designated by Bleeker 1862:10, but perhaps technically that is incorrect since Bleeker was designating the type for Sorubim "Spix" [= Agassiz]; subsequent type designation for Sorubim Cuvier perhaps first dates to Kottelat 1988. •Valid as Sorubim Cuvier 1829 -- (Littmann et al. 2001:87 [ref. 25810], Lundberg & Littmann in Reis et al. 2003:442 [ref. 27061], Littmann 2007:2 [ref. 29028], Ferraris 2007:342 [ref. 29155], Lundberg et al. 2011:169 [ref. 31593], Ohara & Neuhaus 2016:291 [ref. 34536], Bertaco et al. 2016:420 [ref. 34561], Grant 2021:127 [ref. 38702]). Current status: Valid as Sorubim Cuvier 1829. Pimelodidae.

Sorubimichthys Bleeker [P.] 1862:10 [Atlas ichthyologique des Indes Orientales Néêrlandaises v. 2; ref. 393] Masc. Sorubim jandia Spix 1829. Type by original designation (also monotypic). Bleeker designated the type as "Sorubim jandia Spix"; this corresponds to Sorubim spatula Spix & Agassiz in text (p. 26) (See Whitehead & Myers 1971 [ref. 6584]; also Lundberg et al. 1989:333 [ref. 12544]). Technically, jandia was a Spix name first published in synonymy (and on pl. 14, if not considered a vernacular), but it was validated to Agassiz 1829 by its use as a valid name by Bleeker. •Valid as Sorubimichthys Bleeker 1862 -- (Lundberg et al. 1989 [ref. 12544], Burgess 1989:282 [ref. 12860], Lundberg et al. 1991:842 [ref. 19175], de Pinna 1998:314 [ref. 23847], Lundberg & Littmann in Reis et al. 2003:442 [ref. 27061], Ferraris 2007:342 [ref. 29155], Lundberg et al. 2011:165 [ref. 31593], Grant 2021:135 [ref. 38702]). Current status: Valid as Sorubimichthys Bleeker 1862. Pimelodidae.
