BLOCK & SCHNEIDER, 180I 57 



Batrachoides Lacepede, II, 351, 1800; type Batrachoides tau La- 

 cepede. 



Not Gadus tau L. 



Because the body is said to be covered with scales, "molles, petites, minces, 

 rondes, brunes, bordees de blanc et arrosees par une mucosite tres abondantes," we 

 cannot identify this genus with the naked Gadus tau L., which is identical with 

 the type of Opsanus Rafinesque. 



Oligopodus Lacepede, II, 511, 1800; type Coryph^na velifera Pallas. 

 Equivalent to Pteraclis Gronow. 



Hiatula Lacepede, II, 522, 1800; type Hiatula gardeniana Lacepede 

 ^ Labrus onitis L. = Labrus hiatula L. 

 Not Hiatula Modeer, 1793, a genus of Mollusks. Gives way to Tautoga 

 Cuvier. 



Tffinioides Lacepede, II, 532, 1800; type TyENioiDES hermannianus 

 Lacepede. 



Gobioides Lacepede, II, 576, 1800; type Gobius broussoneti Lacepede, 

 as restricted by Jordan & Evermann, 1898. 



Gobiomorus Lacepede, II, 583, 1800; type Gobiomorus dormitor 

 Lacepede, as restricted by Jordan. 

 Replaces Philypnus Bloch & Schneider, 1801. 



Gobiomoroides Lacepede, II, 592, 1800; type Gobiomoroides pison 

 Lacepede = Gobius pisonis L., a species of Eleotris Gronow. 

 Monotypic. 



Gobiesox Lacepede, II, 595, 1800; type Gobiesox cephalus Lacepede. 

 Monotypic.

Batrachus Bloch & Schneider, 42; type Batrachus surinamensis 

 Schneider, as restricted by Jordan & Evermann. 

 The name has been usually applied to the congeners of Gadus tau L., not of 

 Bloch, the group called Opsanus by Rafinesque. But no ally of the scaleless 

 Gadus tau is placed in Batrachoides by Lacepede or in Batrachus by Schneider, 

 only scaly species being known to either. 



Enchelyopus Bloch & Schneider, 50; type, as first restricted, Gadus 

 cimbrius L. (Rhinonemus cimbrius Gill). 

 Not Enchelyopus of Gronow, which is Zoarces Cuvier, nor of Klein, which 

 is Trichiurus.
