Subgenus Paramacrurus Bleeker. 



The richness 1 of the fauna of the East Indian and Phillipine 

 Islands in the species of this subgenus has already been mentioned. 

 Most of these species are closely related to the two which have al- 

 ready been described ; namely, C. notatus and C. argus. 



24. COELORHYNCHUS MACULATUS, new species. 



Type-specimen. — Cat. No. 78215, U.S.N.M. : 191 mm. total in length 

 to broken tip of tail, 66 mm. to anus ; a female, with ripe ova ; type 

 locality, Albatross station 5621, between Gillolo and Makyan Islands.

i Specimen being in poor condition, not designated as a paratype. 



These 12 specimens represent a small species which markedly 

 differs from the others of the same group in the extreme roughness 

 of the scales, both on the head and body. 



Fin-rays — first dorsal, II, 9; pectorals, 16 (15 to 17) ; ventrals, 7 

 (6 on one side in one paratype). 



1 Nine of the 16 known species belong solely to this region.
