Cichla kelberi, paratype, MZUSP 50601, 48.4 mm SL; Brazil: Pará: Igarapé do Grilo, Rio Tocantins, Pindobazinho. many scales are lost, and a through-going perforation likely caused by an arrow or spear through the larger syntype perforates the E1 row; Castelnau gives the range 72-75. In the description, Castelnau says that “l’anale est piquetée de rouge et de noir”, i.e., the anal fin is spotted with red and black. This is significant because C. kelberi is diagnosed particularly by its anal fin colouration. One of us re-examined the existing syntypes with special emphasis on the possible presence of spots on the pelvic and anal fins, which were not mentioned by <strong>Kullander</strong> (1986). Whereas the pigmentation on these fins is indeed not uniform, we cannot recognize light spots of the kind displayed by some freshly preserved adults of C. kelberi although the silvery caudal blotch ring is well preserved in the syntypes. Close to imperceptible light mottling of the otherwise brownish scaled portions of the pelvic, anal, and caudal fins does not permit ambiguous identification as homologous with light spots in fresh specimens of C. kelberi, and is at least partly referable to lost scales. The light anal fin patches are located anteriorly on the fin in the transition between the scaled portion and the scaleless margin, a condition which is different from fresh specimens in which the light spots are located on the posterior soft rays. Whereas the light mottling of the anal fin possibly can be correlated with the red spots described and figured by Castelnau, it does not match the white or yellow spots observed in fresh preserved specimens of C. kelberi, and is doubtfully distinct from uneven artifactual discolouration of fins in other old specimens of Cichla. Whereas the larger syntype has 79 scales in the E1 row, which is in the upper portion of the range of counts of C. monoculus and near the median of the slightly higher range of C. kelberi, the smaller syntype has 71 scales, which is far <strong>Kullander</strong> & Ferreira: Review of Cichla
