Length of head 1/5, of pectoral 1/7, of caudal 1/5, height of body 
2/13 of the total length. Eyes, diameter 1/5 of length of head, two diame- 
ters from end of snout, 1 f diameters apart. Body with compressed sides. 
The free portion of the base of the caudal as long as high. Snout pointed ; 
no enlargement of pre-orbital. Barbels, all about as long as the eye. 
I 1 ins ; dorsal arises midway between snout and base of caudal, its upper mar- 
gin is straight ; pectorals extend above half way to the base of ventials ; 
caudal emarginate in its posterior length. Scales, small, but distinct ; there 
being twelve rows above the lateral line, and thirteen between it and the base 
of the ventral fin. Lateral line, commences by two roots, which soon coal- 
esce, when it is continued to the base of the caudal. Colours, yellowish, with 
a green tinge ; about fifteen brown bands, one-third as wide as the ground 
colour, pass across the back and descend on either side below the lateral 
line ; a few near the head, and some in the posterior third of the body are
