  • Thought to be a probable voucher of Sir Francis Day per review by W.Rainboth, 1982. Image available. Ledger says this is a "Type of Day's Malabar Fishes", but species not mentioned in text (ADW-2011). In addition, this is a species described by Hamilton (1807), possibly a voucher of Day but certainly not a syntype. KEH Dec. 2016. Also see Eschmeyer Cat. Fishes.
