  Comment  
Replacement name for Nocomis rubrifrons Jordan 1877, secondarily preoccupied in Notropis by Alburnus rubrifrons Cope 1865. With the generic recognition of Hybopsis, the replacement name became a junior synonym.
  Etymology of generic noun  
A misnomer given by Rafinesque to shriveled specimens, with the meaning of "back keel"; from Greek, noton = back (Ref. 45335).
