15111 (type of Agonostotnus dorsalis Streets), Samoan Islands, A. B. Stein- 

 berger. 



Streets' type of Agonostomus dorsalis has 33 scale rows and cannot 

 possibly be the same as Mugil seheli Forskal with 38 to 40 scales ; it 

 must therefore be removed from the synonymy of that species in 

 Fowler's "Fishes of Oceania," 1928.
