ChinaTypes
Holotype: IHSAW 9050242. Paratypes: IHASW (and ZMC) 12209043-9050241 (1), 9050243-49 (7).
Distribution
Known only from the type locality: An underground river, Xingren County, Gaowu Town, Guizhou Province, China. 25°32'N, 105°12'E.
Systematics
Clade angularis.
Li at al. (2018) obtained a complete mitochondrial genome of Sinocyclocheilus oxycephalus. This allowed them to show that 11 species in the genus comprised a monophyeltic group: S. grahami, S. wumengshanensis, S. oxycephalus, S. ranganensis, S. jii, and the hypogean S. anophthalmus, S. anshuiensis, S. altishoulderus, S. bicornutus, S. rhinocerous and S. furcodorsalis. This grouping does not agree with the clades proposed by Zhao and Zhang (2009) who placed the hypogean species in three separate clades angularis, cyphotergous and tingi. This situation will require further study to resolve.
