The lower barbels are rather longer than the upper, but shorter 

 than the eye. Lower lip distinct ; a few conspicuous pores ante- 

 riorly ou the snout. The origin of the dorsal fin is opposite the 

 twelfth scale of the lateral line. There are ten longitudinal series 

 of scales between the lateral line and the root of the ventral fin. 

 The height of the body is contained thrice and one-half in the 

 total length (without caudal) ; the length of the head four times 

 and two-thirds. A black spot, edged with yellow below the lateral 

 line, opposite its tenth scale ; another on the end of the lateral 

 line.

The lower barbels are longer than the upper, and than the eye. 

 Lower lip distinct ; consjncuous pores anteriorly on the snout, dis- 

 posed in transverse series. The origin of the dorsal fin is opposite 

 the tenth scale of the lateral line. There are five and a half longi- 

 tudinal series of scales between the lateral line and the root of the 

 ventral fin. The height of the body is two-sevenths of the total 

 length (without caudal), the length of the head one-fifth. A brown- 

 ish streak along each series of scales, that of the lateral line more 

 distinct than the others ; the upper and lower margins of the caudal 

 fin dark violet.

 The lower barbels are much longer than the upper, or than the 

 eye. Lower lip distinct ; snout with two transverse series of small 

 pores anteriorly. The origin of the dorsal fin is opposite the ninth 

 scale of the lateral line. There are three and a half longitudinal 

 series of scales between the lateral line and the root of the ventral 

 fin. The height of the body is contained thrice and a half or thrice
