ner of each are two (mail fpines. But what at once 

 diftinguiflies this from the other fpecies is the 

 breadth and colors of the pectoral .fins, which are 

 very broad and long, of a pale green, mod beau- 

 tifully edged, and fpotted with rich deep blue. 



The dorfal fins are lodged between two rows of 

 fpines, of a ferrated form: the back is of a greenifh 

 call: : the fide line is rough : the fides are tinged 

 with red ; the belly white. 



Thefe fifh are found on the coaft of Cornwall. 

 We have alfo taken them off Anglefea.
