JORDAN AND JORDAN: FISHES OF HAWAII. 69 



406. Lepidaplois modestus (Garrett). (J. & E., p. 279.) 

 Known from Gunther's plate, a copy of Garrett's drawing. 



Verriculus Jordan and Evermann. 



407. Verriculus sanguineus Jordan and Evermann. (J. & E., p. 281.) 



A showy fish. Only the type known; taken with the hook in deep water. 



Verreo Jordan and Sn.yder. 



408. Verreo oxycephalus (Bleeker). (J. & E., p. 281.) 



One specimen known from Kailua. The species belongs to the fauna of Japan. 

 The Australian V. unimaculatus is very similar. 



H IN ALE A gen. nov. Jordan and Jordan. 



Type: Jnlis axillaris Quoy and Gaimard. 



This genus differs from Stethojulis Giinther in the absence of posterior canines. 

 The scales on the breast are large, the mouth very small, the lateral line complete. 

 Hinalea (in Samoan Sugale = choice) is the common name of the small labroids 

 at Honolulu. 



409. Hinalea axillaris (Quoy and Gaimard). Omaka. (J. & E., p. 283.) 

 Common about the reefs. 



410. Hinalea balteata (Quoy and Gaimard). (J. & E., p. 284.) / 

 Stethojulis albovittatus Jordan and Evermann, "Fishes of the Hawaiian Islands," 



p. 284, PI. XXVI; probably not Labrus albovittatus Kolreuter, scantily described 

 from an unknown locality. This species is known only from Hawaii, where no 

 collections had been made in Kolreuter's time (1770). It is rather common about 

 the reefs. There seem to be two types of color, the one with a broad stripe of 

 brownish red bordered above and below by a sharply defined line of purplish blue, 

 as in the plate of Jordan and Evermann; the other with the lateral band brown, 

 bordered above and below by a crimson line. We detect no other differences. 



PsEUDOJULis Bleeker. 



411. Pseudojulis cerasina Snyder. (J. & E., p. 294.) 

 Known only from the type. 



Halichceres Rlippell. 



Parajulis Bleeker; Chcerojulis Gill, substitute names, if Halichceres Riippell 



is regarded as preoccupied by Halichoerus Nilsson, a genus of seals.
