974 CONTRIBUTIONS TO NORTH AMERICAN ICHTHYOLOGY IV. 



Page 945. To the account of Gobius encwomus add: 

 Head 4; depth 5|. D. VI-11; A. 12; Lat. 1. 37. 



Page 104. Instead of Amiurus catiis read, 98. A. nehulosus (Le S.) Gill. 

 The Silurus catus L. is not this fish, and is not identifiable. 



Page 358 (899, 969). The proper type of the genus OpkicJiiliys Ahl. 

 {I)e Murccna et Ophichtho 1789) is Murcvna opliis L. The name OpMclithys 

 should therefore be used as on page 358, for the species with sharp 

 teeth. Those with granular teeth {PisodontopMs Kaup) should be 

 called Ophisurus (Lacepede, ii, 195, 1800: type 0. opliis Lac, nee L.). 

 Our species suould stand as, 584 [h). Ophisurus acuminatus (Gronow) 

 J. i&G. 



Page 440. The caudal j)eduncle in '■^ Selene^'' setipinnis is armed as in 

 Caranx, but more feebly. 



Page 442, Instead of Trachynotus ovatus read, 097. T. rhomhoidcs 

 (Bloch) C. & V. (= GhcBtodon rJiomhoides Bloch, Ichthyol. pi. 209.) 

 The true T. ovatus, from the East Indies, is thought by Liitken to be 

 specifically difierent. 



Page 532 * No. 835 may stand as Polyprion cernium Val. Epineph- 

 elus oxygeneios is said to be a species of OUgorus. 



Page 736. Instead of Frionotus evolans read, 1126. P. sarritor Jor. & 

 Gilb.; and instead of subsp. linearis read, 1126 (&). P. strigatus C. & V. 

 Trigla evolans L. is not identifiable, and Trigla lineata Mitchill was an 

 erroneous identification of T. lineata Bloch. 



* The correctious suggested on this page and the preceding have not been intro- 

 duced into the table of contents.
