Rectoris Lin 1935
Type species: Rectoris posehensis Lin 1935
Diagnosis. Rectoris is similar to Pseudocrossocheilus (sensu Zhang & Chen 1997) and Akrokolioplax (sensuZhang & Kottelat 2006) in having a frenum connecting the upper jaw and lower lip at the corner of the mouth, a character readily distinguishing them from all other Chinese garrain genera. Rectoris differs from Akrokolioplax in having a rostral cap connected with (vs. disconnected from) the lower lip around the corners of mouth, well-developed (vs. minute) maxillary barbels and more lateral line scales (40–46 vs. 36–37) and lacking (vs. having) pair of moveable rostral flaps on the snout tip. It is distinct from Pseudocrossocheilus in possessing tiny (vs. prominent) papillae scattered over the lower lip and regularly arranged in many transverse rows (vs. irregularly arranged) and a pair of tiny (vs. well-developed) maxillary barbels and in lacking (vs. having) a pair of mental grooves on the chin.
