30. The locality suggests that a nominal record of C. canis from the Florida Keys (Fowler, Proc. Acad. nat. Sci. 

 Philad., 5*, 1906: 79) probably referred to the newly described Mustelus norrisi; see Synonyms, p. 256. 



31. Carman's description was based on a Mediterranean specimen of the European Af. mustelus, but his illustrations 

 on a canis from Long Island, New York.
