Hypselobarbus kushavali is diagnosed from its closest congener, H. dobsoni, by having more upper transverse scale rows, more circumferential scale rows and more lateral line to pelvic scale rows, and from H. bicolor and H. jerdoni by having fewer lateral-line and fewer circumpeduncular scale rows. Diagnostic features for H. kushavali are also provided relative to other species of the genus. Keywords: Cyprinidae, Hypselobarbus kushavali, Distribution, Taxonomy.

OCCASIONAL PAPERS OF THE MUSEUM OF ZOOLOGY THE UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN DISCHERODONTUS, A NEW GENUS OF CYPRINID FISHES FROM SOUTHEASTERN ASIA ABSTRACT.-Rainboth, WalterJohn. 1989. Discherodontus, a new genw of cyprinid firhes from southeastern Asia. Occ. Pap. Mzcs. 2001. Univ. Michigan, 718:I-31, figs. 1-6. Three species of southeast Asian barbins were found to have two rows of pharyngeal teeth, a character unique among barbins. These species also share several other characters which indicate their close relationship, and allow the taxonomic recognition of the genus. Members of this new genus, Discherodontzcs, are found in the Mekong, Chao Phrya, and Meklong basins of Thailand and the Pahang basin of the Malay peninsula. The new genus appears to be most closely related to Chagunizcs of Burma and India, and a group of at least six genera of the southeast Asia-Sunda Shelf basins. Key words: Discherodontus, fihes, Cyprinidae, taxonomy, natural history, Southemt Asia. INTRODUCTION Among the diverse array of barbins of southern and southeastern Asia, there are a number of generic-ranked groups which are poorly understood, or which still await taxonomic recognition. One group of three closely related species, included until now in two genera, is the subject of this paper. Prior to this study, two of the three species in this new genus have been relegated to Puntius of Hamilton (1822), but as understood by Weber and de Beaufort (1916), and by Smith (1945). The remaining species has been placed in Acrossocheilus not of *Department of Biology, University of California (UCLA), Los Angeles, CA 90024 2 Walter J. -

We have been extracting energy, materials and organisms from nature and altering landscapes at a rate that cannot be a sustainable one. Our nature is an essential partnership; an 'essential', because each living species has its space and role', and performs an activity vital to the whole; a 'partnership', because the biological species or the living components of nature can only thrive together, because together they create a dynamic equilibrium. Nature is further a dynamic entity that never remains the same- that changes, that adjusts, that evolves; 'equilibrium', that is in spirit, balanced and harmonious. Nature, in fact, promotes evolution, radiation and diversity. The current biodiversity is an inherited vital resource to us, which needs to be carefully conserved for our future generations as it holds the key to the progress in agriculture, aquaculture, clothing, food, medicine and numerous other fields. -

Corresponding author: *E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The distributional record of Hypselobarbus lithopidos (Day, 1874) was from south Canara since its description and a recent record of this species from Khal River, Maharashtra raised some comments and the species identity. In order to ascertain the distribution of this species in Maharashtra and also from an east flowing river, Thunga in Karnataka, the present paper is dealt with the diagnosis and description. Also there is some taxonomic ambiguity on H. lithopidos in the published paper of the senior author on the molecular phylogeny of selected species of Hypselobarbus from peninsular India and this is also resolved based on further examination of those and with additional specimens from the same localities.
