 (caudal lobes not included). Colors (in spirits), bluish on the shoulder; 

 no light cross band behind the pectorals; bands on the side of the head; 

 two behind the e.ve, the upper extending to the origin of the lateral line, 

 and the second from the middle of the posterior border of the eye to 

 the point of the operculum ; a third from above the angle of the mouth, 

 across the lower border of the eye, to opposite the base of the pectoral 

 fin ; a curved band on the cheek below the eye, commencing on the edge 

 of the suboperculum, turning upon itself behind the angle of the 

 mouth, and terminating on the interoperculum. Body, greenish; each 

 scale with a vertical streak. A broad oblique black band across the 

 posterior half of the pectoral fin, and a black spot in the axil above. 

 Dorsal fin with a broad light margin, and an intramarginal band, edged 

 with a fine black line above and below ; the lower line is very near the 

 base of the fin ; a black spot anteriorly on the dorsal between the second 

 and third spines. Anal light colored, base dark ; the dark portion limiited 

 by a fine black line similar to those on the dorsal.

 probably an eastern representative of that species.
