ELOPIDiE. 



9. Elops saurus L. Carajo lieale. 



10. Megalops atlanticiis Cuv. & VaJ. Sabalo. 



CLUPEIDiE. 



11. Clupea pseudohispanica Poey. Sardina de Espana. 



12. Clupea sardina Poey. Sardina de Ley. 



I do uot believe tliat this species is identical with any of those de- 

 scribed hy Cuvier & Valeiicienues. Among the species called Haren- 

 gula, this one, as Poey has stated, is well distingnished by the loose- 

 ness of its scales. 



13. Clupea clupeola. Cuv. & Val. Sardina Escamnda. 



This species seems to be the Rarengula clvpeola C. «.S: V. and the 

 Clupea liumeralis of Giinther. Tbe poorly -described Alausa .striata 

 C. & Y. may be the same fish, and I do not see that it differs in any re- 

 spect from the descriptions of the Eur(>pean Clupea latulus. Ilaremjula 

 pensacoUc Goode & Beau is a diftVrent species, having- the body con- 

 siderably deeper. Very similar to the latter is the Rarengula Immcralls 

 of C. & Y. and also Harengula Jaguana of Poey. Possibly huvieralis 

 jaguana and pensacolce may prove identical. The Clupea macrophthal ma 

 of Ivanzani, as described by Giinther, is diflereut from any of these and 

 the Clupea viaculom of Ciiv. & Yal. seems to be the same as the ma- 

 crophthalma. 



14. Opisthouema oglinum Le Sueur. Macliuclo. 



{Opistlionemus thrissa^ Poey.) 



ENGRAULIDIDiE. 



15. Cetengraulis edentulus Cuvier. Bocon. 



(CitciKjrauJis brevis Poey.) 



There is no evident difference between G. hrevis and C. edentulus. 

 Our Cuban specimens have been compared with an exauiple of the lat- 

 ter froui Rio Janeiro; 



16. Stolephorus browni Gmeliu. Bocon. 



Excessively common.
