Etymology: Devario: Bangla/Bengali:‘debari’, local name for these fishes; also meaning ‘brother in law’ (Ref. 2031); coxi: The specific name refers to the type locality area (Cox's Bazar), but could also refer to the gene fragment used to identify the species (cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1, often shortened to COXI); or to Hiram. A noun in the genitive case.
Cox (1760±1799), after whom Cox's Bazar was named.
Eponymy: Captain Hiram Cox (1760–1799) was employed by the Honourable East India Company in Superintendent of Palongkee on the border of Bengal (Bangladesh) and Burma (Myanmar) and the town of Cox’s Bazaar is named after him. [...] (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Short description
Κλείδες προσδιορισμού | Μορφολογία | Μορφομετρία
Devario coxi is similar to D. aequipinnatus in color pattern, with distinct P+1, P and P
stripes along the side, but P and P-1 stipes confluent anteriorly and containing light spots (vs.
integer to close to pectoral girdle, and interstripe I integer except occasional interruption anteriorly).
It differs from D. aequipinnatus by the combination of having more branched dorsal- fin rays (11½±12½ vs. 9½±10½, exceptionally 11½), more circumpeduncular scales (14, vs. 12, rarely 14); slightly deeper body (body depth 29.9±33.2 vs. 26.7±30.8% SL), and shorter upper jaw (upper jaw length 8.3±9.3 vs. 9.2±12.0% (SL). It is distinguished further from striped species of Devario in southern and south-western India, D. fraseri, D. malabaricus, D. mysoricus, and D. neilgherriensis by having infraorbital process vs. absent (Ref. 116720).
