Pseudocaranx Bleeker 1863
Authors/Creators
Description
Pseudocaranx Bleeker, 1863: 82.
Type species. Scomber dentex Bloch and Schneider, 1801, by subsequent designation of Fowler, 1936: 692.
Remarks. These fishes are presumed to comprise a monophyletic group, but the most appropriate generic classification for them is uncertain pending a well collaborated phylogeny of carangines. Citula Cuvier, 1816 (type species Citula banksii Risso, 1820 [= P. dentex] by subsequent monotypy) is an available senior synonym of Pseudocaranx (type species Scomber dentex) but this generic name has not been used for a nominal species of the group since Rissoʼs description. In the interest of nomenclatural stability, the junior name should continue to be used pending a petition to the International Commission of Zoological Nomenclature to conserve the more familiar generic name. Other more recent synonyms of Pseudocaranx are Longirostrum Wakiya, 1924, Usa (as a subgenus of Caranx) Whitley, 1927, and Usacaranx Whitley, 1931. Within the Caranginae, Pseudocaranx and Caranx equula Temminck and Schlegel, 1844, which Kijima et al., 1986 and Gushiken, 1988 assign to the monotypic genus Kaiwarinus Suzuki, 1962, are exceptional in having very poorly developed inferior vertebral foramina, and may be a sister taxa.
