SUNDER LAL HORA
(Redirected from Sunderlal Hora)
''Sunder Lal Hora'' (1896 - December 8, 1955) was an Indian ichthyologist.
Famous for the ''Satpura Hypothesis'', a zoo-geographical hypothesis proposed by him that suggests that the central Indian Satpura Range of hills acted as a bridge providing for the Malayan affinity of many Indian fauna and flora in the peninsula and the Western Ghats of India.
A genus of ricefish, ''Horaichthys'' ("Hora's Fish"), the sole member of the family ''Horaichthyidae'' are named after him.
