Huso Lovetsky [A.] 1834:257 Masc. Acipenser huso Linnaeus 1758. Type by absolute tautonymy. As Husones a pleural of Huso in Latin text, refers to Husones Brandt & Ratzeburg 1833, available (ICZN Art. 11.8.1). Huso is now in usage, so it seems problematic to use Sterletus for the genus. For the time being we are not following Kottelat & Freyhof 2025 [ref. 42352]. •Synonym of Acipenser Linnaeus 1758 -- (Vasil'eva et al. 2009:865 [ref. 30626], Parin et al. 2014:40 [ref. 33547]). •Valid as Huso Lovetsky 1934 [often with authors Brandt & Ratzeburg 1833] -- (Svetovidov 1973:82 [ref. 7169], Svetovidov in Whitehead et al. 1984:225 [ref. 13675], Nakaya in Masuda et al. 1984:18 [ref. 6441], Mayden & Kuhajda 1996:261 [ref. 22395], Bemis et al. 1997:37 [ref. 22871], Sokolov 1998:23 [ref. 23571], Birstein et al. 2002:287 [ref. 26021], Bogutskaya & Naseka 2004:26 [ref. 28183], Kottelat & Freyhof 2007:46 [ref. 29996], Lipej & Dulčić 2010:17 [ref. 36649], Jouladeh-Roudbar et al. 2015:859 [ref. 34062], Zhang et al. 2016:45 [ref. 34477], Dyldin & Orlov 2016:546 [ref. 34656], Esmaeili et al. 2017:25 [ref. 35254], Esmaeili et al. 2018:7 [ref. 36089], Brownstein & Near 2025:14 [ref. 42105]). •Synonym of Sterletus Rafinesque 1820 -- (Kottelat & Freyhof 2025:547 [ref. 42352]).
