Pronothobranchius kiyawensis
notes: label: Notes
content: At one point USNM 92820 was thought to be a Paratype as someone had labeled it as such. The ledger tagged it as a "co-type". A Lectotype and a Paralectotype were chosen in 2013 and this lot was not listed as being a Paralectotype. The original description of the name does not designate any particular specimen as a Holotype AND the described specimen was sent to Ahl who was not located in the USA but in Europe by the British Museum. As the specimen came to us from the British Museum it is unlikely that it could have been one of the specimens sent to Ahl. It is being placed back in the general collection but this note will remain if questions arise as to why it was removed from the type shelf. Also see the Multimedia tab in Taxonomy for documentation.
