Figure 6  
 Cirrhinus ornatipinnis Roberts, 1997:195, fig. 13. Type locality: Thailand, roadside ditch on highway 24 at km 150 marker, 179 km by road east of Nakorn Ratchasima. Holotype: CAS 91756.   
 Gymnostomus ornatipinnis — Kottelat, 2013.   
 Diagnosis.— A member of Henicorhynchus distinguished from other members of the genus (Table 1) by the following combination of characters: mouth subterminal, weakly oblique to nearly horizontal (less than or equal to 208 to midline of body); maxillary barbels absent; edge of rostral cap straight, without medial indent; flank immaculate, without longitudinal stripes; caudal peduncle immaculate, without spot; anterior ł of caudal fin dusky, posterior hyaline; pectoral, pelvic, and anal fins red or orange in life.   
  Comparisons.— Henicorhynchus ornatipinnis  differs from all other species of Henicorhynchus in having red or orange pectoral, pelvic, and anal fins in life (vs. hyaline fins) and from all except H. siamensis and some specimens of H.   
496  
 entmema (see Remarks for that species) in lacking maxillary barbels. Henicorhynchus ornatipinnis possesses a rostral cap with a straight edge, vs. edge with medial indent in H. entmema, and a subterminal, weakly oblique mouth, vs. terminal in H. siamensis.   
 Description.— Morphometrics and meristics presented in Table 2. Mouth subterminal; weakly oblique to nearly horizontal. Maxillary barbels absent. Edge of rostral cap straight, without medial indent. Pectoral fin with 13–14 branched rays. Lateral-line scales and pored scales on caudal fin 33–35 þ 2–3; predorsal scales 10–12; scale rows above lateral line 5; scale rows below lateral line 5; scale rows between lateral line and pelvic-fin origin 4–4. Maximum length ¼ 93.2 mm SL.   
 Dorsum of head and body light brown. Dorsal of side of head brown; ventral = ł cream to yellow; cheeks and opercula silver. Dorsal 1 3 of flank light brown =, with scattered darker brown spot on scales; ventral 2 3 cream to yellow. Venter cream to yellow. Dorsal fin with dark brown clusters of melanophores forming blotches in middle portions of interradial membranes; pectoral, pelvic, and anal fins hyaline; anterior ł of caudal fin dusky, posterior hyaline.   
  Distribution.— Henicorhynchus ornatipinnis  is native to temporary habitats, including roadside canals, of the middle portion of the Mekong River basin in Thailand (Roberts, 1997; Fig. 9A). It is also reported from slow-flowing lotic habitats in Lao PDR (Kottelat, 2001).

rostral cap straight, without medial indent; flank immaculate, without longitudinal stripes; caudal peduncle immaculate, without spot; caudal fin mostly clear, with scattered melanophores; pectoral, pelvic, and anal fins hyaline in life (Fig. 9).  
  Comparisons.— Henicorhynchus siamensis  differs from all other species of Henicorhynchus, except H. ornatipinnis and some specimens of H. entmema (see Remarks for that species) in lacking maxillary barbels. Henicorhynchus siamensis possesses a rostral cap with a straight edge (vs. edge with medial indent in H. entmema). Henicorhynchus siamensis possesses a terminal, strongly oblique mouth (vs. subterminal in H. ornatipinnis) and hyaline pectoral, pelvic, and anal fins in life (vs. red or orange fins in H. ornatipinnis).   
 Description.— Morphometrics and meristics presented in Table 2. Mouth terminal, strongly oblique. Maxillary barbels absent. Edge of rostral cap straight, without medial indent. Pectoral fin with 14–16 branched rays. Lateral-line scales and pored scales on caudal fin 33–35 þ 2–4; predorsal scales 9–11; scale rows above lateral line 5 (rarely 6); scale rows below lateral line 5; scale rows between lateral line and pelvic-fin origin 4. Maximum length ¼ 142.3 mm SL.   
 Dorsum of head and body brown. Dorsal to of side of head light to dark brown; ventral to ł cream = to yellow; cheeks and opercula occasionally silver. Dorsal 1 3 to of flank light to dark brown, with scattered darker = brown spots on scales in some specimens; ventral to 2 3 cream, yellow, or light brown. Venter cream, yellow, or light brown. Dorsal fin with dark brown clusters of melanophores forming blotches in middle portions of interradial membranes, distal edge brown; pectoral, pelvic, and anal fins hyaline; caudal fin mostly clear, with scattered melanophores.   
  Distribution.— Henicorhynchus siamensis  is distributed in the Bang Pakong, Chao Phraya, Mae Klong, and Phetchaburi basins in Thailand as well as the Mekong basin in Cambodia, Lao PDR, Thailand, and Vietnam (Fig. 9D).
