14. Barbus chagunio, ( beavani , Giinth.) 
It is an undecided question, whether the fish de- 
scribed by Buchanan under this name is identical with 
Gunther’s B. beavani. As the distinction seems 
doubtful, I have preferred Buchanan’s name for the 
present. This and other similar questions will 
doubtless he settled some day, by further investi- 
gation; it would be out of place to discuss them 
here. 
Hab. Bengal. Attains 1-| feet in length, and is 
said to bo good eating. 
Char. Scales 44 to 47, transverse 11 + 11. 
Six rows of scales between the lateral line and 
ventral fin. 
15. Barbus clavatus. 
Hab. Sikkim and base of Khasia Hills. 
Char. Scales 42. 
Head contained rather more than 4 times in total. 
16. Barbus sarana. 
The ray of the back fin is strong and finely ser- 
rated, the teeth on it are not large like those of the 
preceding species, and they lie in a double row. This 
is a very common fish, and liable to considerable 
variation in different localities. 
Hab. Throughout India, grows up to 2 feet in 
length. 
Char. Scales about 31, transverse 5 or 6 + 6 or 7. 
3 or 4 rows between the lateral line and the ventral 
fin.
