In the Manga Reva specimens all have the soft dorsal, caudal, and anal 

 with a pale yellowish margin; it is also evident in some of the Type specimens, 

 although it is not mentioned in the description or figure. Bleeker does not 

 mention such a character in A. polystigma. 



On two of our Manga Reva specimens the lateral line for its entire extent 

 has fully developed tubes to the base of caudal; in the other two specimens, 

 they are rudimentary posteriorly, as in the Types and as described by Bleeker 

 for A. 'polystigma.

 inches long. The bottle bearing this number and labelled Type of Apogonichthys isostigma in V. S.
