FISHES OF THE DUKHUN. 365 
large, and high up. Length, 6 inches ; depth, 1;%ths inch: extreme length, 8 inches, 
Found abundantly in the Beema river, at Pairgaon. The native name is ‘ Phenk.’ 
I have dedicated this fish to my friend Mr. Vigors, the distinguished naturalist. 
Routes Paneut. 
A Rohtee, of a compressed and deep form, with an angular back, and having 12 rays in the dorsal, 14 or 15 
in the pectoral, and 8 in the anal fins, and with the first 3 or 4 rays of the dorsal fin black at their tips. 
An erect and somewhat compressed fish : line of the back somewhat angular : dorsal fin 
situated at the angle: scales rather large: dorsal fin of 12 rays, including the first double 
ray ; pectoral of 14 rays, possibly 15; ventral of 9 rays, situated a little behind a per- 
pendicular from the first dorsal ray ; anal fin of 8 rays, including the first double ray : 
tail forked, of 19 rays, besides minute rays on the outer side of the longest rays : back 
and head yellowish-brown ; silvery towards the abdomen. Brought from the Beema 
river, at Nursewpoor. Length 5 inches ; height 17; width 3%ths of an inch. First 3 or 
4 rays of the dorsal fin black at the tips. I found the same name for the Pangut at 
Chakun, brought from the Baum river. The Pangut belongs to Dr. Hamilton’s eighth 
sub-genus (‘ Cabdio’) of Cyprinus, and has the outline of body of Cyprinus Cotio, but the 
size of the fins render it otherwise quite distinct, and there is not any other fish of this 
sub-order with which it can be identified.

A very beautiful little fish, with a gloss of golden green along the back, and with a

made up of minute dots; one small spot above each pectoral fin, one larger one is 
situated on the tail, above the last anal fin ray, and one minute spot, sometimes want- 
ing, near the base of the first dorsal ray. It has the shape of a Sprat, very rarely ex- 
ceeds 14 inch in length, and most commonly does not approach an inch. Dorsal fin 
situated on a ridge on the centre of the back, and consisting of 10 rays ; the first and 
second undivided ; the first, half the length of the second, the second a bone sharply 
but minutely toothed behind ; pectoral fins of 10 or more rays, situated low down, and 
very narrow and sharp, the first ray being the longest ; ventral fins, situated on a per- 
pendicular let fall from the first dorsal ray, of 8 rays; anal fin of 8 rays, situated mid- 
way between the ventral fins and base of the fork of the tail; first ray half as long as
