Yes and no. It's probably from somewhere in the Flint basin, but the site was only inferred in 2001 as Beaver Creek (Patsiliga Creek tributary in Taylor Co. GA). The site data and most fish from that collection are now MIA, but the remaining species collected all occur in the Flint.

Jordan thus described a new species unwittingly, and it wasn't until 2024 we had an actual description for this species.

The type specimen was in poor condition, lacked diagnostic data, and was subsequently lost. Last year I had to assign a species to this name, and I chose the illustrated species as it was likely the species Jordan was looking at...

It was absolutely mind bending to me to see such ecological and behavioral diversity in a group of fish that I had previously thought were on the bottom of the Amazonian food chain.

The most famous Cynodont is arguably Hydrolysis armatus, or the payara as seen on River monsters. Sizes range dramatically however, with some reaching only 12-15" as adults.

Cynodontidae are a group of highly specialized piscivorous tetras that use large fangs to impale prey and deflate their swim bladder before spitting them out to reposition so they can swallow them head first.
