too small. He observes on its having no lateral line, but qualifies 

 tbis assertion by saying " lateral line very rare, and, when occur- 

 ring, obscure." 



28. C. FULUNGEE = ? Chondrostoma fulimgee, Sykes, Bleeker. 



This species I have received fram Poonah, and described in the 

 'Journal of the Asiatic Society of Bengal, 1872, p. 321. 



29. MoLA SANDKHOL = Lenclscus saudkhol, Sykes, Bleeker, Jerdon ; 

 Leuciscus harengula, Cuv. 8f Val. 



This fish, of the genus Thynniclithjs, Bleeker, is found in both the 

 Kistna and Godavery rivers almost to their terminations. I have 

 not taken it in Burma. 



30. M. BucHANANi, or Cyprinus mola, H. B. 



Is found throughout the Decan, and may be identical with 

 Leuciscus cliitul, Sykes, Bleeker, Jerdon ; but if so,the number of 

 fin-rays has been given incorrectly.^

Length of head 6, of caudal 4|, height of body 3| iu the total length. 

 Eyes — diameter 3J in length of head, nearly one diameter from end of 

 saout, and 1^ apart. Dorsal profile rather elevated; snout a little 

 obtuse. The greatest width of the head equals its length behind the 

 middle of the eye. Mouth horseshoe-shaped, the lower labial fold 

 interrupted in the middle. Upper jaw overlaps the lower ; the maxilla 

 reaches to below the front edge of the eye. Barbels thin ; the maxil- 

 lary ones as long as the eye ; the rostral ones somewhat shorter. 

 Fins — dorsal commences midway between the snout and the base of 

 the caudal, its last undivided ray articulated and f as high as the body ; 

 pectoral nearly as long as the head, not reaching the ventral, which 

 latter extends § of the way to the base of the anal ; anal does not 

 quite reach the base of the caudal, which latter is deeply forked. 

 Scales, 2\ rows between the lateral line and the base of the ventral 

 fin. Lateral line complete. Colours — bluish above, lighter below ; 

 the fins edged with grey. 



Sykes has B. kliudree, composed, I believe, of two species — one 

 with " blood-stained fins " {B. sarana), and his variety with " the 

 fins tipped with bluish instead of red " (or the fish now described). 

 Both species exist in this collection ; but Sykes observes of the 

 undivided dorsal rays, "the whole four compact" or unserrated, 

 which would be correct for B. JDohsoni, but not for B. sarana ;
