Fig 3. Suborbital spines of Leptobotia guilinensis, Sinibotia pulchra and ’B.’ zebra.

Fig 3

Right suborbital spine of (a) Sinibotia pulchra (A1783, 70.5 mm SL), (b) ‘Botiazebra (A8607, 61.9 mm SL) and (c) Leptobotia guilinensis (A8573, 70.6 mm SL) in dorsal view. The spine bears a dorsal branch in S. pulchra, but this branch is missing in L. guilinensis and ‘B.’ zebra. A simple (= unbranched) suborbital spine is the diagnostic character for the genus Leptobotia. Scale bar is 1 mm.
