In volume III of the Gesellschaft Schauplatz, 1776, pp. 61-73, 's 

 given a list of the genera of fishes. This inclucles so far as we note 

 all those pro{)osecl by Klein and those of Linnaeus also, those of Klein 

 appearing first. The names are not in alphabetical order, but follow the 

 sequence of Klein's Ilistoria Piscum Naturalis. This seems to imply a 

 post-Linnaean acceptance of all of Klein's genera, even were their use in 

 the text rejected. One new name appears : 



Pristis Klein, III, 61, 1776: type "Pristis, der Sageschnautz." 

 liquivalcnt to Pristis Liiick. 



XXI. SCOPOLI, Iittroductio ad Historiam Naturalem, Prague, 1777. 



JoHANN Anton Scopoli. 



A descriptive catalogue of the genera of animals and plants. The 

 genera of fishes are mostly those of Linnaeus and Gronow. No types are 

 named save in the two new, Percis and Pticridiu.m. 



The following names given by Gronow are not accepted by Scopoli : 



Enchelyopus (regarded as a synonym of Blennius), Eleotris (= 



GOBIUS), PlECOSTOMUS (= LORICARIA), CoRACINUS (^ScI.ENA), CaL- 

 LORHYNCHUS (=ChIM^RA), CaTAPIIRACTUS (=PeGA.SUS), GyMNO- 



gaster (=Tricuiurus), Cycloc.aster (=Liparis). IIkI'ATITS, ( = 

 Teuthis) ; Amia is used only in the Linnaean sense. 



Liparis (.Artedi) Scopoli. 453: type (not named) Cyclopterus liparis 

 L. 



Percis Scopoh, 454; type L<irn.'.s jai-o.nu r.s i'allas. 



l-.i|iiivalcnt to IIippocf.phalus Swainson, 1839, not Percis Klein. 

 Pteridium Scopoli, 454; type Coryph^;na velifera Pallas (Pteraclis 

 Gronow ) . 



The following names of Gronow arc introdiicc(l into Linn.xan nomen- 

 clature by Scopoli, without mention of tyjic. These date from Scopoli, 

 1777, if the Zoophylaceum of Gronow, 1763, be not accepted.
