1869.] -SURGEON F. DAY ON THE FISHES OF ORISSA. 381 
pus laubuea, H. Buch., by Mr. Blyth. Dr. Giinther has evidently 
received a very different fish from the Hooghly (? Cyprinus dan- 
cena, H. Buch.) ; for it is referred to the genus Ohela, under which 
head I perceive he has also placed the Perilampus fulvescens, Blyth, 
whose two typical specimens I have examined in the Calcutta 
Museum, and which do not belong to the genus Chela, H. Buch., 
but to Perilampus, M‘Clelland.

Length of head 3, of pectora 1, of base of dorsal 54, of base of 
anal {, of caudal } of the total length. Height of head 1, of body 
1, of dorsal $, of ventral 4, of anal + of the total length. 
Eyes. Upper margin near the profile, diameter 4 of length of 
head, § of a diameter from end of snout, nearly 1 diameter apart. 
Dorsal profile nearly horizontal, abdominal profile with a cutting-

Mouth very oblique, knob or symphysis minute. The lower jaw 
in advance of the upper, and the maxilla extends to under the ante- 
rior margin of the orbit. Suborbital ring of bones moderately wide. 
Fins. Pectorals reaching ventrals, and a dilated humeral support-

posterior margin of the orbit and the posterior extremity of the 
caudal fin, and is situated over the anterior anal ray. Caudal lobed, 
the lower the longest. 
Scales deciduous, extending as far forwards on the nape as to 
opposite the posterior margin of the orbit. 
Lateral line descends rather abruptly to opposite the posterior 
third of the pectoral fin, whence it is continued along the lower 
margin of the abdomen, ceasing a little beyond the posterior extre- 
mity of the anal fin. One row of scales between it and the origin 
of the ventral.
