This fish I have placed as a Barilius instead of Danio, in accord- 
ance with Dr. Giinther’s division of the two genera. I find in the 
Calcutta Museum several specimens obtained from the Hooghly by 
Mr. Blyth, and labelled Cyprinus rerio, H. Buch. It may therefore 
turn out to be this latter species, which I shall shortly be able to 
determine in the locality where the original species exists; the C. rerio 
is said to have D. 8, V. 7, A. 16.

This species has two very fine rostral barbels, whose existence Pee 
been overlooked. 
Teeth. Pharyngeal 5, 4, 3/3, 4, 5. 
Hab, Cossye river, where it attains 4 inches in length.

Dorsal fin rather higher than long; its last ray is over the anal, 
and only extends halfway to the base of the caudal. A variety exists 
in the Mahannddi which has the dorsal rays rather more elevated, 
the eye slightly larger, and the cleft of the mouth a little greater.

tenet of head 4, of pectoral ;2,, of base of dorsal 52, of base of 
anal YP of caudal t seh the total length. Height of head 4, of 
body 2, of dorsal ae 77; of anal 4 of the total length. 
Byes. Diameter 4 of length of head, nearly | diameter from end 
of snout. 
Third suborbital bone thrice as deep as the cheek below it; 
humeral process rather narrow. No barbels. 
Fins. Dorsal arises midway between the posterior margin of the 
orbit and the base of the caudal fin; its base is as long as the fin is 
high ; the last ray is thickened and divided to its root ; it reaches as 
far as the base of the caudal fin. The pectoral extends to beyond 
the origin of the ventral, and the latter fin to the base of the anal; 
its inner rays are thickened and rather stiff. The caudal is forked 
in its posterior two-thirds, and the lower lobe is rather the longest ; 
the ends of both are rounded.
