FISCHER, 1813 85 



Ogcocephalus Fischer, 70, 78 ; type not named ; evidently by definition, 



LOPHIUS VESPERTILIO L. 

 Replaces Malthe Cuvier. 



Orbis (Lacepede) Fischer, 70; no type named. 



Said to be like Diodon but "ad minus 4 dentes in maxilla superiore." Evi- 

 dently a misprint for "2 dentes." It is probably a synonym of Ovoides Cuvier, 

 the presumable type being Tetraodon lineatus L., the "Orbis" of Salviani and 

 Rondelet. 



Odontolepis Fischer, 71, 78; no type named. 



A flounder with "pinnae pectorales tenuissimae aut nullae, reliquis conjunctis." 

 The type may be assumed as Symphurus nigrescens. A synonym of Sympiiurus 

 Rafinesque, 1810. Perhaps species of Monochirus or Microchirus were included. 



Psilus Fischer, 74. 



A substitute for Bostrychus Lacepede, which is preoccupied. Equivalent to 

 BosTRicHTHYS Dumeril. 



Psiloides Fischer, 74. 



A needless substitute for Bostrychoides Lacepede. 



Typhlotes Fischer, 75. 



A substitute for Cecilia Lacepede, preoccupied. A synonym of Sphagebran- 

 CHUS Bloch. 



Mustellus Fischer, 78; type (not named) Squalus mustelus L. 

 A synonym of Mustelus Linck, not of Valmont.
