BRYTTOSUS Jordan and Snyder, new genus. 



This genus is allied to /Smi^)e/'C(i, but with deeper body, much larger 

 cycloid scales, no true canines, and many fine antrorse teeth on the 

 preoperclc. The l)lack flap on the opercle suggests that seen in Lepo- 

 nis {Bryttus), a group of which may be descended from relatives of 

 Siniperca and Bryttosus.
