Taxonomic remark Authority given in Nomen. Zool. as Kaup, 1860. nec Kryptopterus Bleeker 1858 see Cryptopterenchelys Fowler 1925 (Nomen. Zool.). See also Cryptopterus Bleeker 1860, perhaps an unjustified emendation of Kryptopterus Bleeker 1858; Cryptopterus Günther 1864 definitely is an unjustified emendation but is later than Cryptopterus Kaup. (Eschmeyer). [details]
Type species as cited Cryptopterus puncticeps Kaup 1859 [details]
