 Pools at Tanegashima, 



PETROCSIRTES LOXOZONUS Jordan and Starks. 



• Tanegashima pools. 



PETROSCIRTES ELEGANS Steindachner. 



Aikawa, IVIisaki, Shiminoseki, Mitajiri, and Akune pools, the latter 

 locality being the most southern record. 



SALARIAS LINEATUS Bleeker. 



Tanegashima pools. 



SALARIAS ANDERSONI Jordan and Starks. 



Tanegashima pools. 



SALARIAS QUADRICORNIS Cuvier and Valenciennes. 



Misaki, Akune, and Tanegashima pools. 



SALARIAS TANEGASAS^M.^ Jordan and Starks. 



Tanegashima pools, where the species is abundantly represented. 

 The males are dark in color, the females having many obhque, black 

 lines with light spaces between. This species is easily distinguished 

 from S. quadricornis by the long, fringed orbital tentacles, those of 

 S. quadricornis being shorter and without fringed edges. An occipital 

 crest is present in S. tanegasasimsB, prominent in the males and very 

 small or absent in the females. 



AZUMA EMNION Jordan and Snyder. 



Hakodate pools. The figure illustrating this species is incorrect 

 in that the origin of the dorsal should be represented as halfway 

 between occiput and upper edge of gill opening. 



BRYOSTEMMA POLYACTOCEPHALUM (Pallas). 



Hakodate, Same, and Aikawa pools. 



ENEDRIAS NEBULOSUS (Temminck and Schlegel). 



Mororan, Hakodate, Same, and Shiogama pools. One of the most 

 abundant tide pool fishes at Same. 



CRISTICEPS FLAMMEUS Jordan and Starks. 



Tanegashima pools. 



PHOLIS TACZANOWSKU (Steindachner). 



Hakodate and Same pools. In life the color ranges from the olive 

 brown to the bright red, green and lilac of the algae, a silver stripe 

 below the eye and a row of spots on the sides standing out in bold and 

 brilliant contrast.
