description
1. Subtemporal fossa (18): (1> 0) medially extended to middle exoccipital. Paralleled in node 211. 2. Length of laterosensory canal of dentary (79): (0> 1) reduced or absent. Paralleled in node 279 and in Aphyocharax nattereri, Bryconamericus rubropictus, Hyphessobrycon elachys, Nantis cf. indefessus, and Thayeria boehlkei. 3. Number of branched pelvic-fin rays (258): (1> 0) six or less. Paralleled in the Aphyocharacinae, in nodes 220, 236, 280, and 302, and in Axelrodia lindeae, Cheirodon interruptus, Cyanocharax alburnus, Hollandichthys multifasciatus, and Hoplocharax goethei.

Astyanax latens, other Astyanax?, Hyphessobrycon bifasciatus, H. luetkenii, other Hyphessobrycon? The species in this clade were included in the Astyanax clade in the hypothesis of Mirande (2009). According to the present hypothesis a new genus should be assigned to these species, given that the type species of Astyanax (A. mexicanus) is included in the Astyanax clade, and the type species of Hyphessobrycon (H. compressus), although not herein analyzed, is presumably included in the Tetragonopterinae along with the members of the rosy tetra clade of Weitzman & Palmer (1997). This node is rather stable across the analyses done for this study, however, its position is variable, lying within the Astyanax clade in some of them. Thus, both the monophyly and position of this clade should be further tested. Synapomorphy: 1. Posterior extent of ventral process of quadrate (151): (0> 1) falling short of posterior margin of symplectic. Paralleled in the Iguanodectinae, in nodes 284, 289, and 298, and in Astyanax mexicanus, A. cf. rutilus, Aulixidens eugeniae, Cyphocharax spilotus, Diapoma speculiferum, Hemiodus cf. thayeria, Metynnis maculatus, Micralestes stormsi, Moenkhausia sanctaefilomen
