Ophidii formes - this category did not exist originally and 



ophidiiform larvae were included in Brosmophysis marginata , 

 Carapidae, "Otophidium" , "Zoarcidae", and "blenny"; identi- 

 fications of B. marginata and Carapidae proved to be mostly 

 correct and "Zoarcidae" to be a yet unidentified ophidiiform 

 species; all "Otophidium" and "blenny" were reexamined and 

 the former included Ophidian scrippsae , Chilara taylori and 

 other ophidiiform taxa (moved to order) ; "blenny" contained 

 O. scrippsae, C. taylori, and other ophidiiform taxa in 

 addition to true blennioids. 



Ceratioidei - identifications of this group were inconsistent and 

 additional specimens may be in the unidentified fish larva 

 category. 



Trachipteridae - tentative and sporadic identifications to genus 

 were lumped to family. 



Melamphaes spp. - all identifications ascribed to Melamphaidae 

 were reexamined and assigned to genus {Melamphaes , 

 Poromitra) or species {Scopelogadus bispinosus) . Larvae 

 originally identified as Melamphaes spp. were not reexamined 

 and this category may contain other melamphaid genera. 



Cottidae - some samples may include specimens of Scorpaenichthys 

 marmoratus , hexagrammids (e.g., Oxylebius pictus, Zaniolepis 

 spp.), and some blennioids (e.g., Hypsoblennius spp.). 



Oxylebius pictus - not identified originally; specimens recently 

 identified from other taxa. 



Zaniolepis spp. - not identified originally; specimens recently 

 identified from other taxa. 



Sebastes spp. - in addition to other scorpaenid genera, 



category includes Prionotus spp. , serranids, scombrids, and 

 other spiny-headed shorefishes, particularly in samples 

 south of line 120. 



Sebastolobus spp. - this category is underrepresented and 

 additional specimens may be in Sebastes spp. 



Hypsoblennius spp. - some specimens remain in Cottidae. 



Clinidae - some specimens remain in Cottidae or unidentified fish 

 larva category. 



Labridae - tentative and sporadic identifications to genus were 

 lumped to family. 



Pomacentridae - specimens checked; now includes species other 

 than Chromis punctipinnis , primarily in the south. 



Chromis punctipinnis - records south of about line 12 may 

 include other pomacentrid taxa.
