remarks: Vari, Ferraris & de Pinna (2005) considered the earlier record of Pseudocetopsis gobioides from the Bermejo basin to correspond to Cetopsis starnesi, but the presence of C. starnesi In Argentina was not confirmed by direct examination of specimens by these authors. This opinion is now confirmed by the new record published recently.
