'' The many .species of this genus in the Mexican region are chiefly the overflow from the vast Brazilian 

 fauna. The larger genera as here recognized are very closely related and were recently regarded as sub- 

 genera of Cichlasoma (Ckhlaurus) = I leros Heckel; several of the species are only provisionally located and 

 » few (godmani, hedricki, Untigonosm) may represent new groups not yet dei.ned.
