sides of body also with irregular gray leprous blotches (perhaps 

 pink in life), the largest between last dorsal spine and first dorsal 

 ra}', forming a saddle ; numerous smaller areas below this to base 

 of pectoral; some on head; a small saddle between second and 

 third dorsal spines ; a large ring of the same grayish color, behind 

 dorsal, forming a ring about caudal peduncle ; some other blotches 

 between soft dorsal and anal ; a ring of black dots about eye; a 

 large oblong black spot on middle of base of soft dorsal, sur- 

 rounded by a light brownish ring ; a similar ocellus below and a 

 little before this on side of body, and a third on caudal fin a little 

 before and above its centre ; a few whitish dermal flaps on soft 

 dorsal ; inside of mouth black, with broad whitish longitudinal 

 stripes, these most distinct on the tongue. Third dorsal spine 

 much longer than second, its length equal to its distance from 

 tip of snout ; length of maxillary 4:^ in body. Upper part of head 

 with some coarse, four-rooted stellar tubercles. 



Our specimens agree very closely with the description of Dr. 

 Gill. There can, however, be little doubt of their identity with 

 with the Pescador of Parra, on which the Lophius ocellatus of 

 Bloch and Schneider was based. The characteristic position of 

 the ocellated spots is precisely the same in the two. I therefore 

 adopt for it the name ocellatus. It is not improbable that Anten- 

 narius annulatus Gill, from Garden Key, will be found identical 

 with A. multiocellatus (Cuv. and Val.).
