Both jenkinsi and sciadicus are included.

Huber's Killi-Data 2000 tends to agree but includes lineolatus in the
grouping. (p. 327-8)
Kenneth Lazara in the Killifish Master Index c. 2000 includes the same
species as Huber in the Zygonectes Agassiz 1854, Wiley 1986 group, except
that he considers auroguttatus a junior sysnonym of cingulatus.
Except that those sources feel that those fishes are fairly closely related,
I don't know the nuances of the grouping. If it wasn't for B.G.'s contest, I
probably would have been stuck "doing something useful" = a honey do or two.
All the best!
