92. Amia fasciata (Quoy & Gaimard). 



I'.nii specimens from Bacon me. 5752: length 1.25 to 1.5 in.), similar in every respect to a specimen from 

 Samoa. The upper and lower bands converge on the caudal I'm. touching or nearly so, the median band near 

 tip of tail. 



The type of Apogonfascialus Quoy & Gaimard, came from Guam and the same specimen appears to have 

 been used by Cuvier & Valenciennes as one of the types of their Apogon rwvemfasciatus published live years 

 later. The other specimen in the possession of Cuvier & Valenciennes came from Timor and. according to a 

 recenl aote from Mr. Vaillant, appears to be the same species.

93. Arnia chrysopoma (Bleeket I. 



Two specimens from Bacon (no. 3976 and 3365: length 3.1 and 4 in). 



Head 2.85 in length: depth 2.85; eye 2.75 in head: dorsal vn-i. 9; anal n. 8; scales 2 29-6; posterior 

 limb of preopercle serrate, anterior limb entire: maxillary extending to below middle of eye: gillrakers 211 on 

 lower limb. 



These specimens agree with Bleeker's description, except that the color in spirits is slightly different. They 

 are vellowish witli 2 very indistinct dusky longitudinal lines, tin' lower one being on the median line, and easily

94. Amia hartzfeldi Bleeker. 



Nine specimens from Bacon (no. 2899, 4194, 4195, 4196 and 3810 to 3814; length 3.2 to 4 in.). 

 These seem in every respect similar to specimens from Cavite, and agree entirely with Bleeker's colored 

 plate of this species.

 dusky; only two specimens show traces of vertical bands seen on some Samoan specimens.
