Not having access to a paper by Prof, lleinhardt, published in 

 ' Videnskabelige Meddelelser fra den naturhistoriske Forening i Kjo- 

 benhavn/ 1854, p. 108, 1 must content myself with quoting the abs- 

 tract given by Prof. Troschel in Wiegm. Archiv, 1855, p. 437 : — 



" Reinhardt has proved the identity of Lepipterus, Cuv., with 

 Pachyurus, Agass. ; the latter name is the prior. His Lepipterus 

 corvina, and a new species, P. lundii, from the Rio das Velhas, in 

 Brazil, belong also to this genus. He considers Heckel's Scicena 

 squnmosissima as the type of a separate genus, near Pachyurus." 



The latter species, described by Heckcl in ' Annalen des Wiener 

 Museums,' ii. 1840, p. 4-38, has the following formula, — 



D. 10 1 1-. A. 1. L. lat. 85-90,

and is said to be distinguished by some of the scales being covered 

 with smaller scales. The caudal is densely scaly ; but nothing is 

 mentioned of the structure of the other fins.

This name is preoccupied by M'Cleiland for a fish identical with 

 Polynemus indicus, and must therefore be altered into that of Poly- 

 nemus tcfniatiis.
