2.7 Syncrossus Blyth, 1860

Blyth, 1860: 166, by subsequent designation by
Jordan & Fowler, 1903: 772 ["Schistura grandis apud
McClelland" qualifies as a deliberate application of a
previous (mis)identification, Code art. 67.2.1, and therefore
two species are included; Cobitis (Schistura) grandis
in M'Clelland, 1839: 307, 444 in fact is a new combination
of Botia grandis Gray, 1832: vol. 1, pl. 94 fig. 3;
"apud" means "in an author"). Gender masculine.
