(1) The internal structure of Leptobrama mülleri is described and illustrated.
(2) Mainly on the basis of differences in the structure of the dorsal fin and its pterygiophores (Table 1 and Fig. 9), Leptobrama should not be included in the Pempheridae, nor is it related to the family except in a most general way.
(3) The genus Leptobrama is placed in the new family, Leptobramidae, with the diagnosis and comparison with other forms (Table 2).
(4) Systematically the Leptobramidae may be close to the Carangidae, especially to Chorinemus. The ontogenetical study of Leptobrama and the survery of fossil forms are needed to decide its more exact position.
