Fishes. 
Only two freshwater fishes were obtained during the expe- 
dition, both from the Kadamaian River, Kina Ralu, 2,150', viz: 
one specimen of the remarkable Gftstromjjzon hormensis {=]jppido~ 
fflanis monticohi) with its flat sucker-like ventral surface, enabling 
the animal to live in the mountain torrents, like the tadpoles of 
Rana caviti/mjjanum mentioned above ; and many specimens of a 
new homalopteroid lish, named by Mr. Boulenger (2) GlaMop.<^h<t 
haniUehi, n. g. and n. sp. He gives the following description of 
this fish ; 
Ghiitiopsifi^ gen. nov. 
“ Head and anterior part of body depressed ; snout scarcely 
projecting beyond the mouth, which is moderately large ; five 
pairs of barbels — two in front of the snout, two at the angle of 
mouth, and one between the two nasal openings ; gill-openings 
narrow. Body covered with small scales, head naked ; lateral 
line present. Dorsal fin short, further back than base of vent- 
rals; anal short; pectoral and ventral fins hoiH-ontal, many- 
rayed, the outer rays simple.” 
“ Well distinguished from Ilomalopiera by the presence of a 
nasal barbel.” 
Ghtniopsis hanitschi. 
“ Depth of body times in total length, length of head 5 
to 5^ times. Head scarcely longer than broad ; snout rounded ; 
eve in the middle of the length of the head, its diameter 5 times 
in length of head, 2^ in interorbital width ; barbels subequal in 
length, twice as long as diameter of eye. Dorsal 8, commenc- 
ing a little behind base of ventrals, situated at equal distance 
from the end of the snout and the end of the caudal. Anal 7. 
Pectoral as long as head, terminating at a considerable distance 
from the ventral. Caudal as long as head, scarcely emarginate. 
Caudal peduncle as long as deep. Beales extremely small, 
smooth ; hit. 1. 120-125. Yellowish brown above, with trans-
