F. Day — Notes on Fish from Kachh. 
Several specimens up to G inches long from Kachh ; others from Puna 
and J abalpur, where it was termed “ Kolees,” as stated by Sykes; and one 
specimen in the Calcutta Museum came from Nagpur. 
Very probably this species may prove to be identical with Tylognathus 
striolatus, Gunther, which is stated to have come from Puna. 
8. Cirrldna mrigala, Ham. Buch. Mo’raka, Kachh. 
Snout tuberculated ; length of head 1/5 in the total length ; five speci- 
mens up to 8 inches in length. 
9. Cirrldna lata, Ham. Buch. Tchirri, Kachh. 
Several specimens up to 6 inches in length. 
10. Cirrldna dero, Ham. Buch. 
B. III. D. 3/9, P. 19, V. 9, A. 2/5, C. 19, L. 1. 39, L. tr. 71/7. 
Length of head 2/11, of caudal 1/5, height of body 1/5, of dorsal fin 1/6 
of total length. Fyes rather high up, diameter 1/5 of length of head, li dia- 
meters from end of snout, and 2 diameters apart. Maxillary Uriels minute 
and. concealed in the groove. Snout rather overhanging the mouth and 
having some open glands across it. Lower jaw the shorter, with a ridge 
above the symphysis. Fins: dorsal commences midway between the end 
of the snout and the posterior border of the base of the anal fin, its last 
ray divided to the root, its upper border very concave, the anterior two 
and the last ray being elongated ; pectoral rather shorter than the head, and 
not reaching so far as the ventral ; caudal deeply forked, its lobes being of 
equal length. Scales: 5 J rows between the lateral line and the base of the 
ventral fin. Colours : greyish superiorly as low as the row of scales above 
the lateral line, wherefrom it becomes silvery white. Several specimens up 
to G inches long. I also obtained two others in Calcutta. 
I should have hesitated identifying this fish with Hamilton Buchanan’s 
merely from the engraving ; for that shows very long barbels, but is otherwise 
correct, even to the relative proportions, but in the text he observes “ at 
each corner of the mouth is a minute tendril. 
11. Barlus sarana, Ham. Buch. Fopri, Kachh. 
12. Barlus ticio, Ham. Buch. Fldari, Kachh. No black spot at the 
commencement of the lateral line ; dorsal and anal fins tipped with black. 
13. Barlus stigma, Cuv. and Val. Very numerous. 
14 . Barlus vittaius, Day. Twelve specimens up to 1'5 of an inch in 
length. The last undivided dorsal ray is articulated. 
15. Nuria danrica, Ham. Buch. 
K 5 . Baslora daniconius, Ham. Buch. Jonir or Goner, Kachh. 
17. Chela lacaila, Ham. Buch. Vai matchi, Kachh. 
Family. — Silurllue. 
18. Macrones carcio, Ham. Buch. 
Local, only found in the deep recesses of streams. Another larger species 
also occurs, it is probably Macrones aor, H. B.
