^Fistularia depressa Giiuther, Eept. Shore Fishes; Challenger, 1880, 69; East In- 

 dies, Australia, China, and Lower California. Abundant in the Gulf of California. 

 Bones of the head less deeply sculptured than in F. serrata, but with the two upper 

 lateral ridges of the snout also serrated; interorbital space nearly flat. Two middle 

 ridges on upper surface of snout not very close together, diverging again on anterior 

 half of length of snout, converging again finally on the foremost part. Body much 

 depressed, nearly smooth, the skin being scarcely rough. 



2 For a description of this species, see Rosa Smith, Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus. , 1883, 217. It 

 is a true Gasterosteus, and not an Eucalia, although -having the naked skin of the 

 latter genus.
