-      * if ``indices[i] >= indices[i + 1]``, the i-th generalized "row" is

+      simply ``a[indices[i]]``.
+    * if ``indices[i] >= len(a)`` or ``indices[i] < 0``, an error is raised.
 
     The shape of the output depends on the size of `indices`, and may be
     larger than `a` (this happens if ``len(indices) > a.shape[axis]``).
