FISHES. MCCULLOCH. 193 



Genus Microcanthus, Swainson. 



MiCROCANTHUS STRiGATUS, Guviev cfc Volenciennes. 



Chcetodon strigatus, Cuvier & Valenciennes, Hist. Nat. Poiss., 

 vii., 1831, p. 25, pi. clxx. ; Id., Schlegel, Faun. Japon., 

 Pisces, 1844, p. 80, pi. xli., fig. 1. 

 Eight specimens are in the collection which do not differ 

 from Schlegel's figure of a Japanese example. 

 Loc. — Wide Bay, Queensland. 



Genus Heniochus, Cuvier <fc Valenciennes. 

 Heniochus macrolepidotus, LinncBus. 



Heniochus acuininatus (Linnaeus), Jordan & Evermann, Bull. 

 U.S. Fish. Comm., xxiii., pt. 1., 1905, p. 376, pi. Iv. 



Loc. —A young example, 75 mm. long, is preserved from 

 three to five miles N.E. of Cape Byron Light, New South 

 Wales, 17 fathoms. 



Genus Vinculum, McCulloch. 

 Vinculum ocellipinnis, Maclpxiy. 



Chcetodon ocellipinnis, Macleay, Proc. Linn. Soc. N.S. 

 Wales, iii., 1878, p. 33, pi. iii., fig. 1. 



The type of this species is preserved in the Macleay Museum, 

 but is in very bad condition and its colour-marking has almost 

 entirely faded. It is a species of Vinculum, and is probably 

 the young of V. sexjasciatum, Richardson, though it differs 

 from any examples of that species I have examined in having 

 twenty-three dorsal rays.
