6 — 6^/4 in total length. Ventrals separated by 372 series of 

 scales from lateral line. In large specimens the ventrals do not 

 reach the anal, the pectorals not the ventrals. Caudal deeply 

 incised, the lobes pointed, longer than head. Caudal peduncle 

 ^surrounded by 16 scales; its height I'/a — i'/? *^ length of head. 

 Length nearly 300 mm.

Compressed, oval. Height 2.6 — 3.2 '), 3.6 — 4.4 in length with 

 caudal. Head 4 — 4.5, 5.4 — 5.5 in length with caudal. Eye more 

 than 3, slightly longer than or equal to snout and somewhat 

 shorter than interorbital space, which is nearly flat. Snout 

 rounded. Four barbels of about equal size, longer than eye. 

 Origin of dorsal opposite to 12th scale of lateral line and to 

 middle of length, separated by 12 — 14 scales from occiput. 

 Dorsal emarginate. The fourth spine coarsely serrated behind 

 by about 20 serratures ; its stiff portion ^/g of length of head, 

 with its flexible part somewhat longer than head. Height of 

 dorsal equal to length of head. Anal emarginate, its height 

 about equal to head without snout. Origin of ventrals sepa- 

 rated by 272 scales from lo^h — nth scale of lateral line, 

 shorter than pectorals, not reaching anal. Pectorals slightly 

 shorter than head, nearly or not reaching ventrals. Caudal 

 deeply incised, lobes pointed, much longer than head. Least 

 height of caudal peduncle 1.7 — 2 in head, 1.3 — 1.7 in length 



l) GuNTHER says: "its depth is one-fourth of the total length (without caudal)". 

 This must be a misprint.
