The new generic name Zacco Jordan and P^vermann {Zalxh^ a min- 

 now, in Japanese) may be applied to the group of ^s\\\{^\\phdiipiis is the 

 type. It diflers from Opanruclithya in lacking the peculiar notched 

 jaws of the t3^pe {uncirostrls) of that genus. The anal fin in Zacco is 

 much elev^ated in the males, which are also highly colored (blue and 

 crimson) in the breeding season, the head covered with warts.

Two specunens, No. 877, F. I., and 12231, Taihoku, agree fairly with 

 ordinary Japanese specimens except in the much greater length of the 

 pectorals. Scales 45; pectorals reaching ventrals; anal lobe past front 

 of caudal. Body with about twehe dark cross-bars.
