Pleuronectes achirus Linnaeus, 1758. Type by absolute tautonymy. Pleuronectes achirus Linnaeus was treated in the synonymy of Achirus fasciatus Lacepède, 1802, but apparently fasciatus Lacepède is not the same as achirus Linnaeus and belongs in the genus Trinectes. •Valid as Achirus Lacepède, 1802 -- (Robins et al. 1980:65 [ref. 7111], Lea et al. 1989:239 [ref. 21534], Allen 1991:205 [ref. 21090], Castro-Aguirre et al. 1999:492 [ref. 24550], Munroe 2003:1927 [ref. 27118], Ramos in Reis et al. 2003:667 [ref. 27061], Ramos et al. 2009:55 [ref. 30194]).

Baeostoma is an unjustified emendation of Baiostoma. Type designated by Myers 1929:37 [ref. 20930] which makes Anathyuridium an absolute synonym of Baiostoma. •Synonym of Achirus Lacepède, 1802. Current status: Synonym of Achirus Lacepède, 1802. Achiridae. (Baiostoma) [ref. 1840]. Neut. Baiostoma brachialis Bean, 1882. Type by monotypy. Baeostoma Jordan & Gilbert, 1883:965 [ref. 2476] and Chabanaud 1928:19 [ref. 783] are unjustified emendations. •Synonym of Achirus Lacepède, 1802 -- (Castro-Aguirre et al. 1999:492 [ref. 24550]).
