Crossocheilus, are the SAEs. For contrast/differentiation with the flying fox the true SAE (C. siamensis (Smith, 1931)) has 1) A zig-zag uneven appearance along the upper edge of their dark body band, 2) The horizontal bar extends onto and through the middle of their caudal fin, 3) Its dorsal surface appears cross-hatched due to the dark margins around each scale, 4) The fins are almost colorless except for the aforementioned caudal ribbing.
