The genus 'Miicnlum was propuseil by McCulloch (1914,

 smaller scales and fewer dorsal spines. The latter being 

 limited to ten.

 Museum was secured on the East Coast of Tasmania by 

 Messrs. Dale and Davis. It is the first of the Chivtodovtichv 

 to be recorded from Tasmanian waters. The specimen 

 measured 375 mm. (over-all measurement when fresh), and 

 its occurrence on our coasts is of intei'est.
