Whitley (1951:67) proposed Typhliasina as a replacement name for Typhlias, citing a list of zoological names published by Neave (1950:284), but did not mention the taxon and author to which the putative senior homonym belonged.

“…Typhlias pearsei (Hubbs 1938) is a troglobitic viviparous brotula endemic to the Yucatán Peninsula karstic aquifer (Møller et al. 2016 ; Scharpf 2017 ; Arroyave 2020 ). The species appears to be confined to habitats out of reach of sunlight, for besides submerged caves it is only known to inhabit cenotes (natural water-filled sinkholes) located inside dry caves (Arroyave et al.…”
