Country
MéxicoTypes
Holotype: UMMZ 116093 325mm TL. No other types were assigned. This species is the type species by original designation and monotypy of the genus Pluto Hubbs 1938 and by subsequent designation of Whitley (1957:67) of the genus Furmastix.
Distribution
Type locality: Cenote de Hoctun, at Hoctun, between Merida and Chichen Itza, Yucatan, México. Known also from three other caves in the same area: Grutas de Balankanche, Cenote de Pochote, and Grutas de Tzab‑Nah (20-21oN, 88-90oW). In all of these caves this species coexists with Typhlias pearsei. Possibly present in Actun Ha and Cenote de Santo Domingo, Quintana Roo, Mexico (Information from Reddell 1981:246‑247).
Habitat
At least four species of troglobitic shrimps, Typhlatya mitchelli, T. campecheae, T. pearsei (Crustacea, Decapoda, Atyidae) and Creaseria morleyi (Crustacea, Decapoda, Palaemonidae) inhabit the subterranean waters of Yucatan (Hobbs and Hobbs 1976, Holthuis 1977) and these may form part of the food supply of the cave fishes. Reddell (1981) records other aquatic fauna from this area.
Systematics
Hubbs (1938:291‑292) erected the genus Pluto for this species but stated that it was very close to Synbranchus. Whitley (1957:67) pointed out that the generic name Pluto Hubbs 1938 was preoccupied by Pluto Pate 1937 (Insecta: Hymenoptera) and provided Furmastix as a replacement. Mees (1962:31‑32) argued that since the only differences between Pluto (=Furmastix) and Synbranchus were those associated with a hypogean life the species should be considered a member of the latter genus. Rosen and Greenwood (1976) conducted a thorough cladistic analysis of all Synbranchiform fishes and placed this species in Ophisternon (with five other species, including the stygobitic Ophisternon candidum) on the basis of three synapomorphies.
Mar-Silva, Arroyave and Diaz-Jaimes (2022) obtained the complete mitochondrial genome of O. infernale. Comparisons with other species of Ophisternon, and with species of Synbranchus, stronly suggested that the Mexican cave species infernale is closer to the genus Synbranchus than to Ophisternon. This seems very likely as Synbranchus is found in Central America whereas most species of Ophisternon are found nowhere near this. Ophisternon aenigmaticum is known from Mexico but may be similary misplaced in that genus. Mar-Sila et al. (2022) suggest that further work is required to confirn these systematic placements. Their Figure 6 is reproduced below under an Open Access license. It is worth noting that Mees (1962) also suggested that infernale be allocated to Synbranchus.
Conservation Status
E (Williams et al. 1989), E (IUCN 1990, 1993).
The groundwater beneath Merida, one of the largest cities in Yucatan, is contaminated with bacteria from human effluent (Cruickshank, Maguirre, Kraemer and Craviota 1980) and it seems likely that this situation will pertain elsewhere on the peninsula. The same authors report the construction of disposal facilities intended to reduce the contamination. Whether these facilities can keep up with the human population growth remains to be seen. A more recent study of the water supply of Yucatan has been made by Brenner, Medina Gonzalez and Zetina Moguel (1995). See also Medina Gonzalez, Proudlove Chumba-Segura and Iliffe (2001).

Key References
The paper by Angyal et al. (2020) contains a great deal of information on the invertebrate fauna of Cenotes in Yucatan. It has an extensive reference list that is highly relevant for any studies of the fishes. The references are not included in the subterranean fish bibliography but should be consulted by anyone following up the biology of Ophisternon infernale and/or Typhlias pearsei.
