30-35 mm.; 90.32, H6204, (3) 34-47.5 mm.; 90.70, H6204, 

 (1) 41.5 mm. ; 90.70, C6208, (3) 13-15.5 mm. ; 97.50, B6203, 

 (3) 35.5-42 mm. ; 100.40, H6204, (4) 39.5-^15.5 mm. ; 110.35, 

 C6303, (4) 28-36.5 mm. 



All these specimens are pelagic, prejuvenile 

 specimens, taken from close inshore to 480 km. 

 (300 miles) at sea. 



173. Sebastodes diploproa (Gilbert). 

 91.39b, C6208, (100+) ca. 31^1 mm. 



174. Sebastodes saxicolu (Gilbert). 

 60.60, H6204, (5) 16-23 mm. 



175. Sebastodes proriger (Jordan and Gilbert) ? 



60.60, H6204, (2) both 26.5 mm. 



This identification is uncertain because of the 

 small size of the specimens. 



176. Sebastodes goodei Eigenmann and Eigen- 

 mann. 



68.50, C6208, (8) 197-231 mm. 



177. Sebastodes jordani ( Gilbert) . 

 94.30, C6208, (2) 188-192 mm. 



178. Sebastodes spp. 



60.60, H6204, (2) 10-13 mm.; 60.70, H6204, (1) «5.5 



mm.; 70.S0-5N, B6203, (1) 15 mm.; 80.90, B6203, (1) 15.5 



mm.; 90.48a, H6105, (1) 4.5 mm.; 90.48b, H6105, (1) 21.5 

 mm. 



Specific identifications were not made because 

 of the small size of these specimens. 



ANOPLOPOMATIDAE 



179. Arwplopoma fimbria (Pallas). 

 68.50, C6208, (1) 182 mm. 



ZANIOLEPIDAE 



180. Zaniolepis frenata Eigenmann? 



90.32, B6203, (1) 22 mm.; 113.34a, C6303, (1) 39.5 mm. 



These two small specimens may represent the 

 sympatric Z. latipinnis Girard — adequate com- 

 parable material is not available to confirm our 

 identification. The larger specimen appears, how- 

 ever, to be Z. frenata, because its third anal spine 

 is shorter than the second. 



AGONIDAE 



181. Agonidae, unidentified. 



90.48a, H6105, (1) 20.5 mm.; 90.48b, H6105, (2) 24.5- 

 24.5 mm.; 90.60, B6203, (1) 19 mm.; 113.34a, C6303, (1) 

 15.5 mm. 



Comparative material is not available that will 

 allow identification of these small specimens 

 (J. E. Fitch, personal communication) . 



GOBIIDAE 



182. Caryphoptei'usnicholsi (Bean). 



Figure 290. 



60.140, H6204, (2) 20-29 mm.; 80.90, H6204, (1) 15.5 

 mm. 



These specimens, taken about 560 and 260 km. 

 (350 and 160 miles) offshore, appear to be pelagic, 

 oceanic, protracted prejuvenile stages of this spe- 

 cies, which is generally known as an inshore, shal- 

 low-water, benthic inhabitant. Other specimens 

 of this form have been taken in offshore waters at 

 various times in CalCOFI routine, 140-m.-deep 

 plankton tows. 



183. Gobiidae, unidentified. 

 90.48a, H6105, (2) 7-8 mm. 



BATRACHOIDIDAE 



184. Porwhtkys notatits Girard. 

 94.29c, C6208, (2) 98-133 mm. 



185. Parichthys sp. 



65.54, C6208, (1) 125 mm. 



This specimen was not identified to species and 

 was discarded at sea. 



BLENNIIDAE 



186. Hypsoblennius gentilis (Girard). 

 123.45, B6212, (1) 15 mm. 



ZOARCIDAE 



187. Melarwstigma pa?rvmel-as Gilbert. 

 90.45a, H61 05, (1) 108 mm. 



HETEROSTOMATA 



BOTHIDAE 



188. Citharichthys sordidtis (Girard). 



Figure 27C. 

 60.60, C6208, (1) 25 mm.; 70.51, C6208, (6) 27-36 mm.; 

 70.60, C6208, (1) 32 mm.; 70.80-5N, B6203, (1) 27 mm.; 

 80.60, B6203, (1) 25.5 mm; 80.60, C6208, (3) 28-32 mm.; 

 S4.92, B6303, (1) 16 mm. 



These are all pelagic larval and juvenile speci- 

 mens taken from close inshore to about 290 km. 

 (180 miles) at sea.
