This fish is similar to L. ariza of which it might be considered 

 a variety ; but both are found in Southern India in the same 

 localities ; and the colour alone at once demonstrates the species 

 when in a fresh state. 



The lateral lobe to the snout may be slightly more apparent 

 in this species and the eye is slightly behind the middle of the 

 length of the head.
