Quote The type locality provided by Eigenmann (1922) for H. tridens was 'Rio Apurimac at Uruhuasi'. According to Hernán Ortega (pers. comm.), the correct type locality of H. tridens is the río Apurimac at Curuhuasi, upper río Ucayali drainage. He believed that Eigenmann erroneously wrote 'Uruhuasi' instead of Curuhuasi.
