A LIST OF FISHES COLLECTED AT PORT ANTONIO, JAMAICA. 

 BY HENRY \V. FOWLER. 



Two collections of Fishes were made, mostly from the nets of 

 fishermen during April and May in the year 1891, by Messrs. W. 

 J. Fox and C. W. Johnson while on a trip through Jamaica. The 

 collection formed by Mr. Fox is at present in the Academy of 

 Natural Sciences of Philadelphia, while that belonging to Mr. 

 Johnson became the property of the Wagner Fx-ee Institute of 

 Science of Philadelphia. To Mr. Johnson I am much indebted for 

 the loan of the collection formed by him. In the following list

 quently recorded from the island's fauna.
