ray being over the first of the anal. Caudal lobed, the lower lobe slightly the 
longer. — Colours : silvery with two or more vortical rows of bluish blotches 
along the sides, the upper being about twelve to fifteen, and the lower inter- 
mediate ; some spots also on the head. Lower half of the dorsal fin slightly 
grey. Caudal orange, stained with grey and black. Pectoral, ventral, and
