The figure of Ccbrcarias taeniatus Hilgendorf agrees in so many 

 ways with the present species that I think it was intended for it. 

 Though only one broad serrated tooth is shown it may have been 

 intended for both jaws. The scales are shown as rounded, though 

 with 4 or 5 parallel keels. 



C arch aria f^ mamaneihsis Engelhardt is too briefly noticed for posi- 

 tive identification. It is said to have a broadly rounded snout, pec- 

 toral long as head, both dorsals and ventrals angularly pointed, first 

 dorsal and anal with black apical blotch. Length, 400 mm.
