Page 703. In Clinus evides, as in Heterostichus rostratus, the inner 

 edge of the shoulder-girdle is armed with an upturned, spine-like hook, 

 not found in any other of our species. This character seems to exist 

 in typical species of CUnus, and in Cristiccps, but not in Labrosomus or 

 Cremnobates.
