near Tor. Mr. Lort Phillips also found it in a hot spring at Makulla, Persian Gulf, 

 and the type specimens of C. stoliczkanus, Day, were obtained in a small nearly quite 

 freshwater stream at the village of Joorun, in Cutch. 

 List of specimens examined : — 



3 Coast of Abyssinia.— Riippell, 1826. (Types.) 



6 Muscat.— Col. A. S. G. Jayakar, 1885-87. 



28 Gala near Muscat. — Col. A. S. G. Jayakar, 1883. 



6 Makulla, Persia.— E. Lort Phillips, 1887. 



12 Cutch.— Dr. F. Stoliczka, 1871. (Types of C. stoliczkanus.) 



I regard the Syrian specimens referred by Giinther (l. c.) and by Gaillard (Arch. Mus. 

 Lyon, vi. 1895, p. 13, figs.) to C. dispar, by Richardson (P. Z. S. 1856, p. 371) to 

 C. hammonis, as a distinct species, for which 1 propose the name C. richardsoni. The 

 caudal fin is rounded instead of truncate, the teeth number only 12 or 14 in each jaw, 

 and the coloration is different.
