 1882, 62G (no description); Steindachner, Ichthy. Beitriige, iv, 1875,

 Fish. Central America, 18G4, 420, PL GG, fig. 1 (Panama). 



Habitat. — Pacific coast of Tropical America ; Panama. 



This species is known to us only from the descriptions of Gill, 

 Giinther, and Steindachner. Professor Jordan tells us that the 

 Upeneus tetraspilus of Giinther is certainly the same as the 

 Upeneus grandisquamis of Gill. 



[We regret to announce that while this paper was going through the 

 press, one of the authors, Mr. Edward Allen Hall, was drowned in Salt 

 Creek, about eleven miles from Bloomington, Ind., on May 22, 1885. He 

 was born at Rushville, Ind., January 9, 1864, and had, during his course 

 of study at the State University of Indiana, proven himself to be an 

 energetic and faithful student. — E. J. N. ]
