Thanks for the link !

has also lots of pictures (although not this one) !

I'm still puzzled that a fish named urophthalmoides (i.e. looking like urophthalma) can exist with
the original now invalidated ;-)

No difference.  Both names are synonyms for Boraras urophthalmoides.  See:

You might want to bookmark Fishbase for later, too.  It's an excellent 
resource.
