    Perennial and Non-Perennial river- River originating from mountains, they get water throughout the year, that river consider as Perennial river. on the other hand river originating from plateau region called Non-Perennial river. these river do not have enough water for the whole year. Peninsular river- They have a large seasonal fluctuation in volume as they are solely fed from rainfall. These river flow in valley with steep gradients. the river which end in the Bay of Bengal are called 'East flowing' river, If the river empties into the Arabian sea, it is called ' West flowing' river. Inland drainage river- The river which does not empty itself into any sea, and end with any lake or any other water body is known as Inland Drainage river. Classification Indus River Originated from Bokharchu Glacier , near Mansarover. Rivers in India Total length of about 2897 km, it fall into the Arabian sea. Enter in India through Ladakh, flow only in J&K. Ganga River It flow between the Ladakh range and the Zaskar range at Leh. Brahmaputra River Originates as the Bhagirathi from the Gangotri glacier.

Editor in charge: Ralf Britz Abstract Psilorhynchus kamengensis, new species, is described from a stream of the Kameng River, a northern tributary to the Brahmaputra drain- age, Arunachal Pradesh, northeast India. The new species belongs to the P. balitora species group and can be distinguished from all other members of this group by the presence of a longer post-epiphyseal fontanelle, 3 unbranched anal-fn rays, 9 + 8 caudal-fn rays, 35 vertebrae and fn coloration. The validity of the species is also corroborated by molecular phylogenetic analysis based on the mitochondrial cyt b gene. Key words Torrent minnow, Kameng, morphology, cyt b, phylogeny.

Both erosion and deposition are continuous processes in the river in an attempt to reach a new equi- librium in channel geometry and morphology by the ever dynamic nature of flow. Erosion and deposition of the river have link to land use and land cover (LULC) as the land cover is under constant change in a dynamic landscape constantly shaped by continuous erosion and deposition. The objective of the present work is to evaluate the extent of erosion and deposition along the Brahmaputra river and change in the LULC of the Brahmaputra river in Assam, India. Remote sensing and geographic information system (GIS) techniques were utilised to extract information from Landsat images. Total area of erosion and deposition during 1973–2014 was 1557 and 204 km2, respectively.
