Morphometric data are given in Table 1. Body elongate, laterally compressed. Snout long. Head length greater than body depth; dorsal surface of head descending sharply anterior to nostrils, forming an ethmoidal groove; head depth greater than head width. Mouth inferior, horseshoe-shaped. Lips developed, lower lip fleshy, with three labial lobes; median lobe minute, its width less than width of isthmus or eye diameter, superficially both side lobes posteriorly rugged (Fig. 3 A). Postlabial groove continuous. Two pairs of barbels: rostral barbel equal to or shorter than maxillary barbel, reaching middle of eye; maxillary barbel extending beyond posterior border of eye. Scales minute, absent on the thorax and abdomen before pectoralfin origin in juveniles up to 144 mm SL, present or embedded beneath the skin on thorax in adults. Lateral line straight, with 95−114 (22*) scales; scales in transverse series from dorsal-fin origin to lateral line, 21−27 (23*); scales in transverse series from pelvic-fin origin to lateral line, 17−25 (14*).

Pectoral-fin length/Length of pectoral-fin origin to pelvic-fin 59.2 82.9 71.0 6.5 origin</p><p>Coloration. In fresh specimens, dorsum and upper body above lateral line grey, rest of body silvery white. Pelvic, anal and caudal fins red; pectoral fin straw yellow. After fixation in 10% formalin and preservation in 75 % alcohol, upper body yellowish grey, lower body whitish; black spots scattered on upper body surface.</p><p>Distribution. The species is known from tributaries of the upper Yangtse River drainage area, including the Niulan Jiang, Yunnan, China and the Wu Jiang, Bijie, Guizhou, China (Fig. 6).</p><p>Habitat and ecology. In Zhongxi River (a tributary of upper Wu Jiang), on 4 Nov. 2006, these fishes were seen in fast flowing water with a pH of 6.2 and water temperature of 16.5 °C. Here the river is 15−30 m wide, 0.5−3 m deep, and the river substrate is comprised of sand, cobblestones and boulders. The water colour is milky blue, owing to the typical karst topography of this region. Schizothorax griseus lives in the deeper layer of the river, especially in deep water close to the river bank and to large boulders and underwater caves. Other syntopic fishes include the cyprinid species Schizothorax wangchiachii, Discogobio yunnanensis (Regan), Zacco platypus (Temminck &amp; Schlegel), Pseudogyrinocheilus prochilus (Sauvage &amp; Dabry), Acrossocheilus yunnanensis (Regan); the balitorid loach Schistura dabryi (Sauvage) and the sisorid catfish Glyptothorax fukiensis fukiensis (Rendahl) .</p><p>Remarks. The type locality of S. griseus is Koei-Tchéou (Guizhou Province), China. The species was earlier thought to be widely distributed, having been reported from the Yangtse, the Pearl, the Lancang Jiang (upper Mekong) and the Irrawaddy drainages (Fang, 1936; Cao, 1964; Huang, 1989; Mo in Chu &amp; Chen, 1989; Wu &amp; Wu, 1991; Chen &amp; Cao, 2000). In this study, we examined specimens from Guizhou Province, which are clearly different from those described by Pellegrin (1931) and Fang (1936) in that scales are present on the thorax in adults. Pellegrin (1931) indicated no scales on thorax of S. griseus, but Fang (1936) examined two syntypes and stated that one of these had scales on the thorax. In the material of S. griseus deposited in KIZ, scales were obviously present or embedded beneath thoracic skin in adults. Furthermore, an examination of photographs of the syntypes of S. griseus shows scales apparently present on the thorax in the bigger specimen (MNHN 1913-0158) (Fig. 1). Material of S. griseus examined by Pellegrin (1931), Fang (1936) and this study share the following characters: mouth in mature specimens inferior, lower lip developed with three labial lobes in mature individuals, postlabial groove continuous with a small median lobe, last unbranched dorsal-fin ray strong, its posterior edge with numerous serrae, and barbels much longer than eye diameter. Fang (1936) illustrated the intestine of a specimen of 90 mm SL. This drawing is consistent with the four specimens we examined, the longest of which is 260 mm SL. Fang (1936) noticed the variation between specimens of S. griseus of different ages; we too, detected variations of snout length and lower-lip structure as noted by Fang (1936). Additionally, our 230 mm SL specimen had an intestine with 5 principal bends (including the ventricle) according to the notation of Fang (1936). Although some variation is apparent between their results and ours, we feel all the material represent same species, S. griseus .</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/D360878FFFA2FF89FF0FFAC6BF4A6CC2	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Schizothorax nudiventris can be distinguished from its congeners by a combination of the following characters: snout blunt; upper lip thin; lower lip developed, trilobed, the median lobe minute, the lateral lobes forming a splayed. Postlabial groove continuous. Thorax scaleless in mature individuals; distal onefourth of last unbranched dorsal-fin ray soft and articulated, proximal three-fourths of it strong, with 15−21 serrae along its posterior edge (Fig. 4 B); pelvic-fin origin beneath or posterior to vertical through dorsal-fin origin; irregular black spots scattered along lateral line on flank; eye diameter mean 92.0 % of maxillary barbel. Schizothorax nudiventris is further distinguished from the sympatric S. lissolabiatus Tsao and S. dolichonema Herzenstein by the absence (vs. presence) of a horny sheath on the lower jaw and having a smooth, trilobed lower lip (vs. bi-lobed in S. lissolabiatus and papillated and single-lobed lower lip in S. dolichonema). Schizothorax nudiventris is further distinguished from another species from the same drainage, S. yunnanensis, by having a continuous (vs. discontinuous) postlabial groove; last unbranched dorsal-fin ray strong (vs. soft); length of barbels equal to or longer (vs. shorter) than eye diameter. Schizothorax nudiventris resembles the sympatric S. lantsangensis Tsao, with which is shares a scalesless thorax, lower lip tri-lobed and postlabial groove continuous, but differs from it in having larger eyes [diameter 57.2−160.0 % (mean 92.0) maxillary barbel vs. 33.9−60.1 % (mean 46.1)]; scales in transverse series from dorsal-fin origin to lateral line 27−34 (12*) (vs. 33−40 (9*)); median lobe of lower lip distinct, free and smooth (vs. indistinct and covered with papillae).</p><p>Description. Morphometric data are given in Table 2. Body elongate, laterally compressed. Snout blunt, short. Mouth inferior, horseshoe-shaped. Lips developed, lower lip fleshy, tri-lobed, median lobe minute, its width equal to that of isthmus; lateral lobes superficially rugged posteriorly (Fig. 3 B); postlabial groove continuous. In small specimens (&lt;126.8 mm SL), lower lip with two labial lobes; postlabial groove discontinuous. Two pairs of barbels; maxillary-barbel length equal to or greater than that of rostral barbel; rostral barbel not reaching anterior edge of eye; maxillary barbel surpassing posterior border of eye. Scales minute, absent on the thorax and abdomen before origin of pectoral-fin. Lateral line straight, with 99−115 (19*) scales; scales in transverse series from dorsal-fin origin to lateral line 26−34 (12*); scales in transverse series from pelvicfin origin to lateral line 20−30 (12*).

Pectoral fin with one simple and 17 (1*), 18 (10*), 19 (13*) branched rays, its length more than half of distance between pectoral-fin origin and pelvic-fin origin. Pelvic fin with one simple and 9 (9*) or 10 (15*) branched rays. Anus located immediately anterior to anal-fin origin. Anal fin with three simple and 5 (26*) branched rays. Anal fin elongated, reaching caudal-fin base in mature females. Caudal fin forked, lower lobe slightly longer than upper one, longest ray twice or more as long as shortest one. Pharyngeal teeth in three rows, tooth pattern 2,3,5−5,3,2, tips of teeth hooked. Outer side of first gill arch with 14−19 (18*) gill rakers; inner side with 19−27 (18*). Air bladder with two chambers, length of posterior chamber 3−3.5 times that of anterior one (Fig. 5 B).</p><p>Coloration. After fixation in 10% formalin and preservation in 75% alcohol, upper body blackish grey; irregular black spots scattered on upper body; lower body beneath lateral line more yellowish; abdomen whitish.</p><p>Distribution. The species is known from the mainstream and tributaries of the upper Lancang Jiang (upper Mekong River) drainage (Fig. 6).</p><p>Habitat and ecology. In the Lancang Jiang River, Schizothorax nudiventris usually coexists with the cyprinid species Schizothorax lissolabiatus Tsao, the sisorid catfishes Pseudecheneis immaculatus Chu, Glyptothorax zainaensis Wu, He &amp; Chu, Pareuchiloglanis gracilicaudata (Wu &amp; Chen), and Pareuchiloglanis kamengensis (Jayaram); the balitorid loach Triplophysa brevicauda (Herzenstein), Paracobitis anguillioides Zhu &amp; Wang and botiid loach Sinibotia longiventralis Yang &amp; Chen.</p><p>Etymology. From the Latin nudus meaning naked and venter, abdomen, possessive; nudiventris, in reference to the scalesless thorax and abdomen anterior to the pelvic-fin origin of this species.</p><p>Remarks. Schizothorax nudiventris was identified as S. griseus (Cao, 1964; Mo, 1989; Chen &amp; Huang, 1998; Chen &amp; Cao, 2000). The two species share a similar mouth structure. Biplots of the maxillary barbel against SL and HL for S. griseus and S. nudiventris (Figs. 8, 9), indicate that the regression lines are significantly different (p &lt;0.001 in all cases) between the two. Wu &amp; Wu (1991) allocated the specimens of ‘ Schizothorax griseus ’ examined by Cao (1964) from the Lancang Jiang drainage area to S. yunnanensis . According to the descriptions of S. griseus in Cao (1964), we feel certain that the specimens from the Lancang Jiang drainage examined by Cao (1964) were in fact S. nudiventris . Schizothorax nudiventris can be distinguished from S. yunnanensis in having its lower lip divided into three lobes (vs. two lobes); having a continuous (vs. discontinuous) postlabial groove; and last unbranched dorsal-fin ray strong (vs. soft). Schizothorax nudiventris is restricted to the Lancang Jiang drainage area.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/D360878FFFA4FF86FF0FFF3BB81969DC	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

The species is known from the upper reach of the Nanpan Jiang in Yunnan Province (Fig. 6).</p><p>Habitat and ecology. In Yingshang (a tributary of the Nanpan Jiang), Fuyuan County, Yunnan Province, these fishes occur in small streams. Here the river is 0.5−1.5 m deep, 5−15 m wide. The river substrate is comprised of sand and pebbles. At the time of capture the water was black-grey, most likely due to the presence of a coal mine upstream. In May, many young S. heterophysallidos 40−50 mm SL were seen to inhabit shallow water. Other sympatric fishes include the cyprinid species S. lissolabiatus, Abbottina rivularis (Basilewsky), Pseudorasbora parva (Temminck &amp; Schlegel), Discogobio yunnanensis (Regan), D. macrophysallidos Huang, and Sinocyclocheilus multipunctatus (Pellegrin); the sisorid catfish Pareuchiloglanis longicauda (Yue); and the cobitid loach Misgurnus anguillicaudatus (Cantor) .</p><p>Etymology. From the greek heteros, meaning special or different, and physallidos, from the greek “physal”, possessive, meaning air bladder or bleb. An adjective, in reference to the species having an unique air bladder.</p><p>Remarks. Schizothorax heterophysallidos is unique amongst the members of the ‘ S. griseus complex’ in possessing an elongated posterior chamber of the air bladder. The length of the posterior chamber of air bladder is three to six times greater than that of the anterior one (Fig. 3 C). Schizothorax heterophysallidos is restricted to the Nanpan Jiang drainage area.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/D360878FFFA9FF81FF0FF95ABF436EBC	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.

Schizothorax beipanensis is distinguished from all congeners by the combination of the following characters: absence of horny sheath on the lower jaw; upper lip developed; lower lip developed, trilobed; postlabial groove continuous, with a minute median lobe. Schizothorax beipanensis can be distinguished from S. griseus by the absence (vs. presence) of black spots on the flank, along the lateral line; distal 20-25 % of the last unbranched dorsal-fin ray soft (vs. strong); rostral barbel not reaching (vs. reaching) the middle of the eye; eye diameter 58.5−120.1 % length of maxillary barbel (vs. 33.4−93.7 %). Schizothorax beipanensis is most similar to S. heterophysallidos, from which it is distinguished, however, by the unique air bladder of the latter.</p><p>Description. Morphometric data are given in Table 4. Body elongated, laterally compressed. Snout blunt. Dorsal surface of head descends sharply anterior to nostrils, forming an inconspicuous ethmoidal groove. Mouth inferior, horseshoe-shaped. Lips developed, lower lip fleshy, with three lobes; postlabial groove continuous, with a small median lobe of width greater than that of isthmus, surface of posterior parts of side lobes rugged (Fig. 3 D). Only two labial lobes present in some specimens (&lt;123.2 mm SL), with no obvious median lobe or posterior groove interruption, a minute crescent-shaped horny sheath present on anterior lower jaw. Two pairs of barbels: maxillary barbel equal to or longer than rostral barbel, which reaches short of mid-eye; maxillary barbel may or may not reach posterior border of eye. Scales minute, absent on thorax and abdomen before pectoral-fin tip. Lateral line straight, with 91−111 (11*) scales; scales in transverse series from dorsalfin origin to lateral line 20−27 (8*); scales in transverse series from pelvic-fin origin to lateral line 21−25 (3*). Two rows of enlarged scales on each side, extending from base of vent to anal fin.</p><p>Dorsal fin with three simple and 8 (18*) branched rays. Last simple unbranched dorsal-fin ray strong, with 13−19 (10*) serrae along its posterior edge (Fig. 4 D). Dorsal-fin origin above or posterior to pelvic-fin origin. Predorsal length equal to or greater than distance from dorsal-fin origin to caudal-peduncle base. Pectoral fin with one simple and 16 (1*), 17 (6*), 18 (7*), 19 (3*) branched rays, its length 56.7−80.5 % of distance between pectoral-fin origin and pelvic-fin origin. Pelvic fin with one simple and 8 (2*), 9 (9*), 10 (6*) branched rays. Anus located immediately anterior to anal-fin origin. Anal fin with three simple and 5 (18*) branched rays. Anal fin elongated, reaching caudal-fin base in mature females. Caudal fin forked, lower lobe slightly longer than upper one. Pharyngeal teeth in three rows, tooth pattern 2,3,5−5,3,2, tips of teeth hooked. Outer side of first gill arch with 14−19 (14*) gill rakers, inner side with 18−25 (14*). Air bladder with two chambers, length of posterior chamber twice that of anterior one.</p><p>Coloration. In life, dorsal surface darkish cyan; margins of pectoral, pelvic and anal-fins reddish; dorsal and caudal fins grey; abdomen whitish. After fixation in 10% formalin and preservation in 75% alcohol, upper body blackish grey, lower body yellowish; abdomen whitish-yellow.</p><p>Distribution. The species is known from the upper tributaries of the Beipan Jiang (a tributary of the Pearl River) drainage area (Fig. 6).</p><p>Habitat and ecology. In the Xiaochahe River (a tributary of Beipan Jiang), Yangchang Town, Xuanwei County, Yunnan Province, these fishes occur in slow-flowing water. Here the river is 0.5−1.5 m deep. The river substrate comprises of mud, sand and large stones. Schizothorax beipanensis inhabits deep pools with large stones. Other sympatric fishes include the cyprinid species S. lissolabiatus, Discogobio elongatu s Huang, D. yunnanensis (Regan), Abbottina rivularis (Basilewsky), Carassius auratus auratus (Linnaeus), Aphyocypris chinensis Günther, Rhodeus ocellatus (Kner), Sinocyclocheilus sp. and the cobitid Misgurnus anguillicaudatus . In Suoqiao River (a tributary of the Beipan Jiang River), Shanbanqiao Town, Pu’an County, GuiZhou Province, these fishes occur in clear, fast-flowing water. Here the river is 0.5−3.0 m deep. The river substrate is comprised of sand, pebbles and boulders. Sympatric fishes include the cyprinid species Discogobio elongatus, S. lissolabiatus and Sinocyclocheilus sp.</p><p>Etymology. The species name is a reference to the type locality, the Beipan Jiang, formed as an adjective.</p></div>	https://treatment.plazi.org/id/D360878FFFAEFF82FF0FFDF6BED569D3	Public Domain	No known copyright restrictions apply.
