Holo<strong>type</strong> <strong>of</strong> Ptychidio jordani Oshima, 1920, SU 23927, 270 mm TL.Holo<strong>type</strong>: SU 23927 (270 TL), central Fromosa, probably Polisia or Kagi, 1908, coll. Victor Kühne.Remark. This is also the <strong>type</strong> species <strong>of</strong> the genus Ptychidio. Böhlke (1953) suggested this species was introducedfrom mainl<strong>and</strong> China. This species was never found in Taiwanese waters <strong>and</strong> should be excluded form theichthy<strong>of</strong>auna <strong>of</strong> Taiwan.335.

FIGURE 7. Holo<strong>type</strong> <strong>of</strong> Leuciscus schisturus Oshima, 1920, ANSP 63183, 145 mm TL.Holo<strong>type</strong>: ANSP 63183 (145 TL), central Taiwan, collected by student <strong>of</strong> National Normal University in summer<strong>of</strong> 1919.Remark. Status <strong>of</strong> this species is still uncertain. Oshima (1920b) stated that L. medius <strong>and</strong> L. schisturus werecollected together with Salmo formosanus [=Oncorhynchus formosauns] <strong>and</strong> Liobagrus formosanus that are onlyfound in Taiko [Da–Jia] <strong>and</strong> Taito [Da–Du] rivers. However, neither specimen nor record for both was reported inTaiwan after Oshima’s description.AcknowledgementsThis investigation was supported by Taiwan E–learning <strong>and</strong> Digital Archive Program (NSC 99-2631-H-001-027).
