1G2 Itcport on some Fishes received from the Sitang Biver. [No. 2, 



of the anal fin," as described bv B. Hamilton ; but all the fins are 

 more or less minutely dotted, the dots tending to form a slight stripe 

 along tbe lower half of several of the rays of the dorsal, anal, and 

 ventral fins, the ventral and lower half of the caudal being more 

 decidedly suffused with blackish. 



D. 17.— A. 8.—P. 15.— V. 9.—C. 19. 



The first rays of the dorsal and anal being minute, and the first 

 three rays of each of these fins joined as usual. Tenasserim provinces. 



Dangila Beedmorei, nobis, n. s. Readily distinguished by having 

 a black spot at the tip of every scale. Head 4| times in the total 

 length. Height about the same. Tentacles small and fine. Eye 

 larger than in D. Cuyieri (figured by Valenciennes), and the back 

 rising evenly from the muzzle to the base of the dorsal fin. About 

 40 scales on the lateral line, and 12 or 13 longitudinal rows. 



D. 28.— A. 9. 



Colour silvery, paler belovv, and each scale marked as described : 

 the membrane of the dorsal fin minutely dotted, and all the fins 

 slightly tinged with yellow. Length of only specimen 4| in. ; the 

 dorsal nearly f in. high in front. Tenasserim provinces. 



Leuciscus anjana, (B. H.) : L. lateralis, McClelland. Te- 

 nasserim. 



Nueia, Valenciennes. The members of this genus are Leu- 

 cisci, with the dorsal fin placed far backward as in Pebilampus, 

 but the anal is short as in Leuciscus proper, and there are four 

 slender and rigid maxillary filaments, the upper sometimes of great 

 length. To this genus belong N. sutiha, (B. H.), jojia, (ibid.), 

 and (Leuciscus) babbatus, Jerdon. 



N. alta, nobis, n. s. Of comparatively large size and deeper in 



the body than any previously described; but evidently nearly aífined 



to N. babbata, (Jerdon), and like it with 32 scales along the body 



in 7 rows ; each scale having three or four distinct diverging ridges. 



Upper filaments of great length, more than reaching to the anal fin ; 



the other pair minute. Pectorals reaching to the ventrals. 



D. 8.— A. 7. 

 Colour ruddy, with a broad yellow lateral band surmounted by a 



nearly obsolete black streak : gill-covers silvery ; and a black spot 



above the base of the pectorals : fins palé and yellowish, more or less
