 of the front series. The width of the praeorbital, above the angle of 

 the mouth, is less than one-half of that of the orbit. Caudal fin

The height of the body is two-fifths of the total length (the caudal 

 fin not included) ; the width of the orbit is more than that of the 

 interorbital space or than the length of the snout ; the greatest width 

 of the praeorbital is one-third of the diameter of the eye. Teeth 

 very narrow. Caudal subtruncated, with the lobes rounded. Blue, 

 each scale with a yellow spot ; a dark band along the middle of the 

 nape and of the forehead ; another from the origin of the lateral line 

 through the eye to the snout, where it meets that of the other side. 

 The lower side of the head brownish. The lower half of the dorsal

The height of the body is contained twice and a fourth or twice

 width of the orbit is more than that of the interorbital space or than 

 the length of the snout. The greatest width of the praeorbital is 

 nearly one-half of that of the orbit. Teeth very narrow. Caudal
