APPENDIX TO CHAPTER V. 185 



Labeo leschenaultii, Cuv. 



"Very similar to, if not identical with Labeo fim- 

 briatns. There would appear to be two specimens in 

 the British Museum, one from a tank in South Arcot, 

 the other from Central Asia. The distinctive points 

 are as follows : Scales 43 to 44, transverse 9 + 8. 



5^- series between the lateral line and the ventral 

 fin. 



Cyprinus nancar, H. Buchanan. 



Hae. Small rivers of the Gorruckpore district. 

 3 lbs. 



Description. Dorsal rays 20. Anal 8. Barbels 4, 

 minute edges of the lips smooth. Scales large. (By 

 this term Buchanan would probably mean to indicate 

 from 35 to 40.) Mouth low, extends straight back 

 and is small. The jaws protrude in opening. Back 

 sharp edged. 



Colour above dark green, with a golden gloss. 

 Fins dark coloured. Eyes reddish. 



This fish may perhaps be a Labeo, but its position 

 is very doubtful, until some one shall procure speci- 

 mens. 



Chondrostoma boggut, Sykes. 

 Perhaps the same as Labeo striolatus. 

 Hab. Deccan, Central India. 



Char. Dorsal rays 12 or 13. Scales 60 to 65, 

 transverse 12 + 14. One pair of maxillary barbels.
