is larger, the maxillary 2| in head, instead of 2| ; and the dorsal rays 

 are V-I, 32 or 33. Florida to Brazil ; reaching a large size.

Grayish, paler below; fins blackish; pectoral pale; a very faint 

 olivaceons band from the eye to the nape (corresponding to the black 

 band in S. rivoliana, but scarcely visible). Body' deep, compressed ; 

 head compressed, not conical, a little longer than deep; snout 2f in 

 head; maxillary reaching front of pupil, 3| in head; occiput somewhat 

 carinate; caudal keel little developed. Dorsal falcate, its anterior lobe 

 If hi head, 2.^ in base of fin. Head 3f ; depth 3f. D. VIII-I, 29; A.

 Nat. Mus. ii, 1879, 129, not of C. & V. ? It is tliouglit by Dr. Liitken that this species 

 is ideutical with S. rivoliana, but this identity is not yet jiroven. S. riroliana^^hona- 

 riensiH^bosci seems to be slenderer, with a distinct black temporal band.)

This species differs from Seriola dorsalis notably in the larger mouth 

 (maxillary reachiug middle of eye, 2^ in head, in S. carolinends ; barely 

 reaching front of pupil, 2f in head, in S. dorsalis). S. carolhiensis, S. 

 lalandi, and S. dorsalis have the occipital region broadly rouuded in 

 tlie adult, while in -S". zonata it is sharply compressed or carinated at' 

 all ages. In S. zonata, the body is much deeper, the head more obtuse, 

 and the dark bands in the young fish much blacker.

Page 446. According to Dr. Liitken {SpoUa Atlantica, 1880, 603) Ula- 

 gatis pinnulatus Poey (the "Runner") is ideutical with Elagatis hipinnu- 

 latus (Q. & G.) Benn., a species known from the East Indies and the 

 Mediterranean. References for the latter are: 



{Seriola Upinnulata Quoy & Gaimard, Voy. Uran. Zool. i, 363: Elagatis Upinnvlatus 

 Benn. Whaling Voyage, ii, 283 : Seriolichthys bipivnulatus Bleaker, Nat. Tyds. Nederl. 

 Ind. vi, 196 : Seriolichthijs bipinvulatus Giinther, ii, 468; the generic name Elagatis be- 

 ing rejected by Dr. Giinther on account of the prior Elacate.)

 small sup])lemental bone, of which no trace exists in the American spe- 

 cies or " Oligoplites.'^ The latter group probably merits recognition as-
