Several specimens, measuring 1^ inch, have also been collected in the open sea off 

 the east coast of Africa ; we refer them to B. pantherinus, because it appears to be the 

 common species of this locality : they are quite colourless, without any trace of scales, 

 but with both eyes already transferred to the left side. The origin of the dorsal fin is 

 quite as far advanced as in the adult. Pectorals very small.
