260 BULLETIN OP THE BUREAU OF FISHERIES. 



The same year a brief note was published by the writer (Berry, 1912b, p. 434) in 

 which the Hawaiian Ommastreph.es was awarded separate recognition as O. hawaiiensis 

 n. sp. and a very brief definition given. 



At about the same time (Berry, 1912c, p. 645) the identity of Stephanoieulhis with 

 Heteroteuthis Gray 1849 having been recognized, the subsequent name was abandoned 

 as a synonym (for this also see Naef, 191 2, p. 246). 



In 1 91 3 the writer described the following new forms from the present material: 



Laetmoteuthis lugubris n. gen. and sp. 

 Scaeurgus patagiatus n. sp. 

 Euprymna scolopes n. sp. 



Teleoteuthis compacta n. sp. 

 Abralia trigonura n. sp. 

 Pterygioteuthis microlampas n. sp. 



In the present monograph all the species diagnosed in 1909 and 191 3 are redescribed 

 in better detail and figured throughout. Identifications corrected from the list of 1909, 

 together with the few changes in nomenclature which have been found necessary since 

 that time, will be made readily apparent by a glance at the following synopsis of the 

 fauna. No additional new species are here described.
