Cyprinid^. 



1. Barbus ticto, Ham. Buch., BhimTal (lake), Kumaon, 4,500 

 feet. 



2. Oreinus richardsonii, Gray and Hardw., Soondrijal, Nepal. 



3. Diptychus annandalei , sp. n. 



Depth of body 3f to 4 in the length ; length of head 3| to 4. 

 Snout as long as or shorter than eye, the diameter of which is 3 

 (young) to 3f in the length of head, and nearly equal to the inter- 

 orbital width. Two barbels on each side, the anterior much shorter 

 than the posterior, which is not, or scarcely longer, than half the dia- 

 meter of eye. Body nearly entirely naked. Dorsal II 8 ; origin 

 equidistant from snout (young) or middle of eye and base of caudal, 

 longest ray about \ the length of head ; free edge of the fin straight. 

 Anal II 6, when laid back not reaching the caudal ; free edge slightly 

 convex. Pectoral f the length of head, not reaching the ventrals, 

 which are inserted below the origin of the dorsal. Caudal forked. 

 Caudal peduncle 1^ to t^ as long as deep. Greyish ; a few dark 

 spots on the sides ; a dark lateral stripe ; dorsal and caudal dusky, 

 lower fins pale. 



Total length, 70 mm. 



Pharping, Nepal. 



The description is based on three specimens ; the species differs 

 from others of the genus in having two pairs of barbels. 



4. Basilius hendelisis, Ham. Buch., Bhim Tal (lake). 



SlI^IIRID^. 



5. Saccobranchus fossilis, Bl., Katmandu. 



6. Euchiloglanis blythii, Day, Pharping. 



In a recent paper (Ann. Mag. N. H. (7), xv, 1905, pp. 182-185) 

 I have' shown that the fishes which have been usually placed 

 in the genus Exostoma, Blyth, fall into three very distinct groups 

 which should be regarded as genera. For one of these I revived 

 the name Chimarrhichthys , Sauv., 1874, but as was pointed out by 

 O'Shaughnessy {Zool. Record, 1874) this is preoccupied, and I 

 therefore propose to substitute for it the new generic name 

 Euchiloglanis. 



OpHIOCEPH AUD^ . 



7. Ophiocephalus punctatus, Bl., BhimTal (lake), Pharping and 

 Katmandu.
