200 THE GENERA OF FISHES, PART U 



Cynaedus Swainson, II, 229; logotype Labrus rupestris Bloch, as restricted by 

 Bonaparte, Labrus tinca, as restricted by Swain. Swainson offers this name 

 as a substitute for Crenilabrus Cuv.. of which he wrongly assigns Luti- 

 ANUS verres, a BoDiANUs, as type. Cyn.edus Sw. (not of Gronow or Scopoli) 

 is a synonym of Ctenolabrus Cuv. & Val. 



Astronotus Swainson, II, 229 ; haplotype Lobotes ocellatus Spix. Replaces Acara 

 Heckel and Hvgrogonus Gthr., 1862. 



Thalliurus Swainson, II, 230; haplotype Labrus blochi "= Labrus fuligi nosus 

 Lac. Replaces Hemigymnus Gthr., 1864. 



Labristoma Swainson, II, 230; logotype Pseudochromis olivaceus Riippell. A 

 needless substitute for Pseudochromis Riippell, 1835. 



Cichlasoma Swainson, II, 230; haplotype Labrus punctatus Bloch. Called Cich- 

 laurus on page 173; equivalent to Heros Heckel (1840) as restricted; appar- 

 ently Cichlaurus should stand. 



Ichthycallus Swainson, II, 232; logotype Labrus julis L., as restricted by Bona- 

 parte (1839). Swain has chosen (1882) Labrus semipunctatus as type, a 

 species of CoRis Lac. Jordan later took the first species named, dimidiatus, 

 as type, a species of Iridio. Ichthycallus is a synonym of Julis Cuv. & Val. 

 "Chlorichthys and Ichthycallus, confused jumble of species, may well be 

 disposed of as synonyms of Thalassoma and Coris, respectively, although 

 several other genera are represented in each." (Swain.) 



Eupemis Swainson, II, 232; haplotype Labrus fusiformis Riippell. A synonym of 

 Cheilio Lac. 



Chlorichthys Swainson, II, 232; logotype Labrus bifasciatus Bloch, as restricted 

 by Swain. Bonaparte selects as type Labrus pavo Hasselquist, a species not 

 mentioned by Swainson. A synonym of Thalassoma Sw. 



Zanclurus Swainson, II, 239; type Histiophorus indicus Cuv. & Val. A synonym 

 of Istiophorus Lac. 



Zyphothyca Swainson, II, 239; type Gempylus coluber Cuv. & Val.; for Xipho- 

 theca Montague. A synonym of Gempylus Cuv. 



Leiurus Swainson, II, 242; logotype Gasterosteus aculeatus L. A synonym of 

 Gasterosteus L. 



Polycanthus Swainson, II, 242; type Gasterosteus spinachia L. A synonym of 

 Spinachia Fleming, 1825. Polycanthus is also preoccupied. 



Chirostoma Swainson, II, 242 ; haplotype Atherina humboldtiana Cuv. & Val. 



Meladerma Swainson, II, 243; haplotype M. nigerrima Sw. = Elacate pondi- 

 cerriana Cuv. & Val. A synonym of Rachycentron Kaup (1826), and of 

 Elacate Cuv. (1831). 



Platylepes Swainson, II, 247 ; haplotype Scomber lactarius B1. & Schn. A syn- 

 onym of Lactarius Cuv. & Val. 



Argyrlepes Swainson, II, 247 ; haplotype Argyrlepes indica Sw., based on Mitta 

 p^vrah of Russell, pi. 156. a species of Leiognathus. A synonym of 

 Leiognathus Lac. 



Alepes Swainson, II, 248 ; haplotype Alepes melanoptera Sw., based on Wori 

 parah Russell, pi. 155, apparently the same as Caranx nigripinnis Day, 

 a species of Hemicaranx ; apparently replaces Hemicaranx Blkr. 



Zonichthys Swainson, II, 248; tj-pe Scomber fasciatus Bloch. A section or sub- 

 genus under Seriola. 



Hamiltonia Swainson, II, 250; logotype H. ovata Sw. = Chanda nama Ham. 

 (fig. 27) as fixed by Swain (1882). Hamiltonia is given as a substitute for
