In suswni the second and third brown streaks join at a point opposite the rear of the soft dorsal base and con- tinue as a single dark streak on the dorsal side of the caudal peduncle, and the lower two join opposite the anal origin, to continue as a broad streak along the anal fin base; in lineata all these dark streaks remain separate. From the other species of Y'psigramrria^ lineata may be separated by means of the key.
