106 MEMOIRS OF THE CARNEGIE MUSEUM 



Family CHANTD.E. 



17. Chanos chanos (Forskal). 



Giran, Taihoku, and Toii (Jordan & Evermann). 



Family CLUPEID.E. 



18. Sardinella toli (Cuvier & Valenciennes). 



Five specimens three to four inches long from Takao. Kotosho (Jordan & 

 Evermann). The genus Sardinella is identical with Harengula and probably also 

 with Kowala. The Sardines and Pilchards should stand as Amblygqster Bleeker, 

 a name earlier than that of Sardinia Poey. 



19. Amblygaster maculatum (Richardson). 

 Giran (Jordan & Evermann). 



20. Amblygaster immaculatum (Kishinouye). 



Seven specimens, four and one-half inches long from Takao, Formosa. 



Dorsal 16 or 17; anal 16; scales 44; head 3.6 in length without caudal, a 

 pupil's width more than greatest depth of body ; depth 4.3 in length ; body com- 

 pressed, greatest width nearly 2 in depth ; eye 3 in head, equal to snout without 

 adipose eyelid ; lower jaw slightly projecting when mouth is closed ; maxillary 2 

 in head, not quite reaching middle of eye ; small teeth in front of lower jaw ; vomer, 

 tongue and palatines smooth ; origin of dorsal nearer snout than base of caudal ; ven- 

 trals inserted in front of middle of dorsal ; gill-rakers fine, length two-thirds of eye ; 

 scales deciduous, posterior edges' smooth or broadly sinuate, some with evident striae 



Color silvery below, bluish black above; upper and lower jaw tipped with 

 blackish ; a narrow median frontal line of blackish from above pupil to even with 

 nostrils. 



This is probably identical with Clupea imrnacidata described by Kishinouye 

 from the Riu Kiu Islands.
