APOGON CRASSICEPS Garman 



Apogon crassiceps Garman, Bull. Mus. Comp. Zool., vol. 39, p. 230, 1903. 



Amia crassiceps (Garman) Jordan and Se:ale, Bull. U. S. Bur. Fish., vol 25 (1905), 



p. 239, fig. 32, 1900 (Apia). 

 Amia fusca (Quoy and TJaimard) Jordan and Se.\i.e. ihid., p. 244, fig. 38 (Apia). 



Although the two species, A. crassiceps and A. fusca, shown by Jor- 

 dan and Seale were figured with a different caudal fin in their figs. 32 

 and 38, they are very similar, and the caudal fin of "J., fusca" though 

 badly damaged, appears to have been somewhat concave. Until addi- 

 tional material is available for statistical study, these species, along 

 with many others referred to the genus Apogon, cannot be separated 

 with accuracy.

 specimen.
