The false x-ray tetra, Hyphessobrycon simulatus, is a characid endemic to French Guiana, from the Maroni to the Oyapock/Oiapoque river basins. Uncommon in the trade, it was originally described in the genus Pseudopristella. It is told from Pristella maxillaris by a larger humeral spot and black in the anal fin limited to the first ray.
