40 FISHES OF HAVANA, CUBA. 



76. Mycteroperca bonaci Poey. Agnaji Bonaci. 



{Tr'isolropiti honaci, hrinineus, ami agiiaji Poey.) 



Mt/cieroperca microlcpis (^oode & Bean {Agitqji) was also seen in som 

 numbers in the markets, but all the specimens had been sliipped froi 

 Key West. 



77. Mycteroperca veneiiosa Linnanis. Bonaci de Piedra. 



( Triso'.ropln pifvosua Pooy. ) 



78. Mycteroperca venenosa apua Blocli. Bonaci Cardenal. 



{Triftolropis cardimilis Poey.) 



In a review of the genus Epinephelns (Proc. U. S. Fat. Mus., 188^ 

 389), Professor Swain and the writer have adopted the name (qma for 

 species of I^phiephelus. E. catns C. & Y. 



A careful recomparison of the accounts given by Bloch & Mar( 

 grave have convinced me that the original Bodianus apua of Bloch i 

 the red variety of Mycteroperca venenosa, as suggested by us on pag 

 391 of the paper cited. The name apua has therefore priority ovc 

 Johnius guitatus Bloch & Schneider, as a varietal name for the Bona< 

 Garden al. 



The Bodianus marginatus Bloch & Schneider, based on the Pira\ 

 apia of Marcgrave, is also the same fish, without doubt. 



For the " Gahrilla,^^ called by us Epinephelus apua, we must eithe 

 adopt the name guftatus L., for the reasons given by Goode & Beai 

 or else we must take the name catus C. & V., which seems to be th 

 earliest tenable specific name ever given to the species. The nam 

 Lutjanus lunulatus of Bloch & Schneider is not available, because it i 

 preoccupied by the same authors higher up on the same page.

{Promicrops guasa Poey.)
