Length of head 1/5, of caudal 1/5, height of body 2/7, of dorsal fin 2/11, 

 of the total length. — Eyes : diameter 1/3 of length of head, nearly 1 diameter 

 from end of snout. Third suborbital bone thrice as deep as the uncovered por- 

 tion of the cheek below. Humeral process rather narrow. The posterior extre- 

 mity of the maxilla reaches to below the anterior margin of orbit. No bar- 

 bels. — Ems : dorsal commences midway between the posterior margin of the 

 orbit and the base of the caudal, its last ray is thickened and reaches the caudal 

 when laid flat. The inner rays of the ventral are likewise thickened. Cau- 

 dal with rounded lobes.— Scales, with a few elevated spots on each. — Lateral 

 line : 3-§- rows of scales between it and the base of the ventral fin.- — Colours : 

 yellowish, the back grey, and from seven to nine broad and deep blue bands

EZab. — Cossye river ; attaining 3 inches in length. A variety exists in
