26 REPORT OF COMMISSIONER OF FISH AND FISHERIES. 



Sebastolobus altivelis Gilbert. Station 3670. Ten specimens were preserved, 

 of which 9 have 15 dorsal spines, while 1 has exceptionally 16 spines as in 

 S. alaseanus. 



Sebastodes goodei Eigenmann & Eigenmann. Station 3671. Hand Hue near 

 Monterey, 69 fathoms. 



Sebastodes paucispinis (Ayres). Santa Catalina Island; Monterey Bay. 



Sebastodes serranoides Eigenmann & Eigenmann. Santa Catalina Island. 



Sebastodes flavidus (Ayres). Monterey Bay. 



Sebastodes mystinus Jordan & Gilbert. Monterey Bay. 



Sebastodes pinniger (Gill). Monterey Bay. 



Sebastodes miuiatus (Jordan & Gilbert). Monterey Bay; Santa Catalina Island. 



Sebastodes saxicola (Gilbert). Stations 3665, 3667,3671. 



Sebastodes introniger Gilbert. One specimen 44 cm. long; locality unknown. 



This species has been identified with S. melanostomus Eigenmann, by Cra- 

 mer and by Jordan & Evermann. The types of the two have not been compared, 

 and the description of S, melanostomus fails to agree in so many details with 

 specimens of S. introniger that it seems best to keep the two apart. S. introni- 

 ger has the head larger, 2f in total length. The interorbital space is narrower, 

 5i in length of head. The scales are larger, 34 in the course of the lateral line. 

 The accessory scales are very numerous. The gillrakers are much longer, the 

 longest contained 2^ to 2^ times in the diameter of the orbit. The second and 

 third anal spines are equal, or the second slightly the longer, contained IJ times 

 in longest anal ray. In S. melanostomns the head is 3J in total length, there 

 are 43 scales in the lateral line, and but few accessory scales. The gillrakers 

 are contained 3^ times in the diameter of orbit. The anal spines are graduated, 

 the second ''not much more than half the length of the soft rays." Two speci- 

 mens of S. introniger, 30 cm. and 44 cm. long, entirely agree with each other in 

 the respects above mentioned. The differences alleged to separate the two 

 species can not, therefore, be due to age.

Icelinus quadriseriatus (Lockiugton). Station 3663, 



Raduliuus boleoides, new species, Plate 1, Type, a young female specimen, 72 

 mm, long, from Albatross Station 3664. Differing from B. asprellus in the much 

 smaller eye, the scaled interorbital space, the presence of supraocular and occip- 

 ital filaments, the smaller size and weaker spines of plates of the dorsal series, 

 and the difi'erent coloration. 



Head 4 in length ; depth 9. Eye 3| in head (2| in B. asprellus of the same 

 size); snout 3i; maxillary 2|. Dorsal xi-22. Anal 23. Pectoral 18. Ventrals 

 I, 3. 42 plates in the dorsal series. 



Head and body very elongate, depressed anteriorly, the occiput wider and 

 flatter than in B. asprellus. Snout long, dei)res8ed, and tapering, much as in the 

 darters, Interorbital space very narrow, about half diameter of pupil. Mouth 

 horizontal at lower side of snout, the maxillary reaching a vertical which trav-
