germo, Scomber Lacepède [B. G. E.] (ex Commerson) 1801:1 [Histoire naturelle des poissons (Lacepède) v. 3; ref. 2710] Eastern Pacific, ca. 620 km east of Rapa Nui (Easter Island), ca. 27°S 103°W. Holotype (unique): Not preserved. Type catalog: Fricke 2025:22 [ref. 42678]. Appeared earlier as Scomber germon in Lacepède 1800:598 [ref. 2709]. The section on "les scombres" was started at the end of Lacepède 1800 (v. 2) and continued at the beginning of Lacepède 1801 (v. 3); therefore, the descriptions of Scomber germon and Scomber germo are in reference to the same species but appeared in separate volumes published in different years with different spellings. See Scomber germon Lacepède 1800. Based on the 'Scomber pinnulis a tergo dorsi & ani novem aureis' in Commerson 767-1771: 0-30 [82-112] [ref. 41290] (see Fricke 2025:22 [ref. 42678]). Also appeared in Sonnini 1803:284, 319 (vol. 7) [ref. 30473] as Scomber germon on p. 284 and as Scomber germo on p. 319. •Synonym of Thunnus alalunga (Bonnaterre 1788) -- (Collette 1990:991 [ref. 19476], Collette 2001:3752 [ref. 26305], Collette 2003:1853 [ref. 27087], Collette 2003:14 [ref. 27312], Collette in Carpenter & De Angelis 2016:2911 [ref. 34618], Collette 2022:286 [ref. 40167], Fricke 2025:22 [ref. 42678]). Current status: Synonym of Thunnus alalunga (Bonnaterre 1788). Scombridae: Scombrinae. Habitat: marine.

germo, Scomber Bennett [F. D.] 1840:278 [Narrative of a whaling voyage round the globe v. 2; ref. 260] Eastern Pacific, ca. 620 km east of Rapa Nui (Easter Island), ca. 27°S 103°W. Holotype (unique): Not preserved. Based on the 'Scomber pinnulis a tergo dorsi & ani novem aureis' in Commerson 767-1771: 0-30 [82-112] [ref. 41290]. •Synonym of Thunnus alalunga (Bonnaterre 1788) -- (Gomon et al. 1994:826 [ref. 22532], Collette 2003:14 [ref. 27312]). 1°Homonym. Current status: Synonym of Thunnus alalunga (Bonnaterre 1788). Scombridae: Scombrinae. Habitat: marine.

germon, Scomber Lacepède [B. G. E.] (ex Commerson) 1800:72 [Histoire naturelle des poissons (Lacepède) v. 2; ref. 2709] Eastern Pacific, ca. 620 km east of Rapa Nui (Easter Island), ca. 27°S 103°W. Holotype (unique): Not preserved. Type catalog: Fricke 2025:22 [ref. 42678]. Also in Lacepède 1801:1 [ref. 2710] as Scomber germo. The section on "les scombres" was started at the end of Lacepède 1800 (v. 2) and continued at the beginning of Lacepède 1801 (v. 3); therefore, the descriptions of Scomber germon and Scomber germo are in reference to the same species but appeared in separate volumes published in different years with different spellings; both are treated as independent description. See Scomber germo Lacepède 1801. Based on the 'Scomber pinnulis a tergo dorsi & ani novem aureis' in Commerson 767-1771: 0-30 [82-112] [ref. 41290] (see Fricke 2025:22 [ref. 42678]). Also appeared in Sonnini 1803:284, 319 (vol. 7) [ref. 30473] as Scomber germon on p. 284 and as Scomber germo on p. 319. •Synonym of Thunnus alalunga (Bonnaterre 1788) -- (Gibbs & Collette 1967:99 [ref. 13640], Collette & Nauen 1983:81 [ref. 5375] as germo, Collette 1990:991 [ref. 19476] as germo, Collette 2003:13 [ref. 27312], Fricke 2025:22 [ref. 42678]).
