The Halieutiehthys reiiculatiis Poey, it appears, was described as early 

 as 1818, by Dr. Mitcliill. The anthor was acquainted witb Dr. Mitcblll's 

 l)aper, but did not tbink of connecting his description of the new '■'■Loph-

 history, and Mr. G. B. Goode first recognized the identity of the two. 

 The history of the species may be epitomized as follows :
