SYSTEMATICS: martae Y.

Current status: valid sp.

Status evaluation (current): unconfirmed by several authors {recently disclosed either as a Rivulinae species, probably related to Austrofundulus, Terranatos or, more appropriately, as a Cubanichthyinae species, then convergent with vicariant Rivulinae}.

Systematic remarks (with taxonomic history): well defined (taxonomic history : consistently regarded as a distinct species since description in 1875, but a forgotten name, identical and senior to dearborni ; since that concept has been regulated and strongly restricted by ICZN, the species is restudied and surprisingly appears to be a distinct species, not to be assigned to Cyprinodon, by Huber in 2000, then moved to a new monotypic genus in 2012 related to Austrofundulus).
