The authors show that several fixed point theorems of the Fan--Browder type or acyclic maps in hyperconvex metric spaces are consequences of known results for maps in generalized convex spaces. In fact, their results present generalized and improved versions of fixed point theorems due to \textit{W. A. Kirk} and \textit{S. S. Shin} [Houston J. Math. 23, No. 1, 175--188 (1997; Zbl 0957.46033)], \textit{W. A. Kirk}, \textit{B. Sims} and \textit{G. X.-Z. Yuan} [Nonlinear Anal., Theory Methods Appl. 39A, No. 5, 611--627 (2000; Zbl 1068.47072)], \textit{E. Tarafdar} and \textit{G. X.--Z. Yuan} [Math. Comput. Modelling 32, No. 11--13, 1311--1320 (2000; Zbl 0960.54029)], \textit{X. Wu}, \textit{B. Thompson} and \textit{G. X. Yuan} [J. Math. Anal. Appl. 276, No. 1, 80--89 (2002; Zbl 1011.54034)] and others.
