Taxonomic Remarks
We believe based on the original description, plate, and locality that Platystoma truncatum is a synonym of Pseudoplatystoma tigrinum. We have retained the younger name P. tigrinum (Valenciennes, 1840) for purposes of stability, there has been virtually no use of P. truncatum since its original description, thus we treat it as a Nomen oblitum. For reproductive biology and ecology, see Loubens and Panfili (2000).
