68 THE GENERA OF FISHES 



Clupanodon Lacepede, V, 468, 1803; type Clupea thrissa L. 



As restricted by Rafinesque, 1815, through substitution for Clupanodon the 

 more euphonious name of Thrissa. The name Clupanodon has been variously 

 treated. It should properly replace Konosirus Jordan & Snyder, although La- 

 cepede's account of "Clupanodon thrissa" is taken mainly from the West Indian 

 "Caillieu-Tassart," Ophisthonema oglinum (Le Sueur), the Clupea thrissa of 

 Broussonet, but not of Linnaeus.
