THE SHORE FISHES. 



Actual and proportional measurements of largest and smallest specimens. 



In our specimens the anal has from 6-7 rays. The statement of size of eye 

 by Jordan and Evermann {loc. cit.) is probably a mistake. The figure shows a 

 smaller ej^e and but VII dorsal spines. We have examined the Type and it has 

 seven spines. All but one of our specimens have seven spines in the first dorsal 

 and that one apparently has but six.
