Taxon Notes:Updated from Macquaria novemaculeata after several genetic studies (e.g. Jerry et al 2001, Near et al 2012, Lavoué et al 2014, Betancur et al 2017) showed this species and Macquaria colonorum group separately from other members of genus Macquaria so both species are moved to genus Percalates.
