VENOMS IN THE ANIMAL SERIES 311 
The venoms of all the fishes of which I have just given a brief 
description, as regards their physiological action, present a. fairly 
close resemblance to the venom of the Weever, and show scarcely 
any variation except in the intensity of their effects. They have 
been but little studied hitherto, and it is desirable that they should 
be better understood.
