Holotype (unique): BMNH 1867.9.23.37. •Valid as Cichlasoma nicaraguense (Günther 1864) -- (Villa 1982:196 [ref. 36708] as nicaragüense, Bussing 1987:210 [ref. 22927], Conkel 1993:147 [ref. 22949]). •Valid as Copora nicaraguensis (Günther 1864) -- (Burgess 2000:50 [ref. 24818]). •Synonym of Hypsophrys unimaculatus Agassiz 1859 -- (Chakrabarty & Sparks 2007:61 [ref. 29184]). •Valid as Hypsophrys nicaraguensis (Günther 1864) -- (Kullander & Hartel 1997:195 [ref. 22732], Bussing 1998:354 [ref. 24179], Kullander in Reis et al. 2003:637 [ref. 27061], Mundy 2005:420 [ref. 28379], Schmitter-Soto 2007:64 [ref. 29310], Schmitter-Soto 2007:43 [ref. 29317], Matamoros et al. 2009:21 [ref. 31241], Angulo et al. 2013:1005 [ref. 33194], Říčan et al. 2016:35 [ref. 34357], Angulo et al. 2023:52 [ref. 40676]).

spilotum, Cichlasoma Meek [S. E.] 1912:73 [Field Museum of Natural History, Publications, Zoölogical Series v. 10 (no. 7); ref. 2960] Victoria, Costa Rica. Holotype: FMNH 7686. Paratypes: FMNH 7725 (now 7), UMMZ 188994 [ex FMNH 7725] (3). Type catalog: Ibarra & Stewart 1987:26 [ref. 12367]. •Synonym of Cichlasoma nicaraguense (Günther 1864) -- (Conkel 1993:147 [ref. 22949]). •Synonym of Hypsophrys nicaraguensis (Günther 1864) -- (Kullander in Reis et al. 2003:637 [ref. 27061], Schmitter-Soto 2007:64 [ref. 29310]). Current status: Synonym of Hypsophrys nicaraguensis (Günther 1864). Cichlidae: Cichlinae. Habitat: freshwater.

unimaculatus, Hypsophrys Agassiz [L.] 1859:408 [Proceedings of the Boston Society of Natural History v. 6 (1856-1859); ref. 74] Syntypes: MZC (not found). The entire description of the genus and species is, "A second [genus], resembling Chrysophrys, he called Hypsophrys unimaculatus." Typically this would be regarded as not available, no distinguishing features provided (from Lake Nicaragua). The species unimaculatus has not been used as a senior synonym and Schmitter-Soto 2007:65 [ref. 29310] suggests conserving the younger name. Combined with a feminine genus, the original species epithet should have been unimaculata. •Kullander & Hartel 1997:200 [ref. 22732] treated as available and valid, but would continue to recognize the younger Hypsophrys nicaraguensis (Günther 1864) as the name to use. •Valid as Hypsophrys unimaculata Agassiz 1859 -- (Chakrabarty & Sparks 2007:61 [ref. 29184] as unimaculatus with nicaraguensis in synonymy). •Synonym of Hypsophrys nicaraguensis (Günther 1864) -- (Kullander in Reis et al. 2003:637 [ref. 27061], Schmitter-Soto 2007:64 [ref. 29310], Říčan et al. 2016:34 [ref. 34357]). Current status: Synonym of Hypsophrys nicaraguensis (Günther 1864). Cichlidae: Cichlinae. Habitat: freshwater.
