Ken Lazara (pers. comm.) pointed out that this genus dates to Cuvier 1829. In the 1990 edition of the Catalog of Fishes we treated Cynodon as a name first published in synonymy of Rhaphiodon Agassiz, 1829:76 [ref. 13], but later made available back to Agassiz with type as gibbus designated by Eigenmann 1910:444 [ref. 1224]. It is now regarded as first published in Cuvier as a name in synonymy, subsequently made available back to Cuvier 1829 by subsequent use as a valid name. Treated as valid but with different type species and concept -- (e.g., Géry 1986:63 [ref. 6019]). Technically, Cynodon Cuvier is the senior objective synonym of Hydrolycus Müller & Troschel, 1844.
