  A

  of 
  fish 
  not 
  yet 
  clearly 
  distinguished 
  from 
  0. 
  cyprinoides, 
  

   much

  of

  pos- 
  

   sibly 
  its 
  immature 
  stage. 
  The 
  trunk 
  may 
  perhaps 
  be 
  somewhat 
  

   stouter 
  than 
  in 
  the 
  last 
  species 
  and 
  the 
  lobes 
  of 
  the 
  caudal 
  fin 
  

   broader. 
  

  

  This 
  is 
  described 
  as 
  the 
  type 
  species 
  of 
  Macrorhipis.
