JORDAN AND JORDAN: FISHES OF HAWAII. 89 



Masturus Gill. 

 (Cf. Gill, Proc. U. S. N. M, VII, 1884, p. 425.) 

 Caudal fin pointed; otherwise much as in Mola. 



560. Masturus lanceolatus (Lienard) . 

 Orthagorisciis oxynroptcnis Bleeker. 



The Bishop Museum contains a cast four feet long of this very rare species. 

 Of this cast we present a photograph. The posterior parts are marked with many 

 small white spots. This is the third specimen of a Masturus on record. 



Ranzania Nardo. 



561. Ranzania makua Jenkins. Makua; Apahu. (J. & E., p. 440.) 



Four examples are now known from Honolulu and one from Japan. A fine 

 cast of a large example is in the Bishop Museum. It is very doubtful whether the 

 species is distinct from Ranzania truncata Nardo, of the Atlantic. 



This strange fish is very handsomely colored in life, as Dr. Jenkins' excellent 

 plate shows. 



Suborder OSTRACODERMI. 



Family CXV. OSTRACIID.E (Trunk-fishes). 



Ostracion Linnseus. 



562. Ostracion sebae Bleeker. Moa. (J. & E., p. 442.) 

 Ostracion camurum Jenkins. 



Abundant about Honolulu. 



563. Ostracion oahuense Jordan and Evermann. (J. & E., p. 443.) 

 Rather scarce. 



564. Ostracion lentiginosum Bloch and Schneider. Oopakalm. (J. & E., p. 443.) 

 South Seas. Rare at Honolulu.

565. Lactoria schlemmeri Jordan and Snyder. (J. & E., p. 444.) 

 Laysan . 



566. Lactoria galeodon Jenkins. (J. & E., p. 445.) 

 Rare about Honolulu.

{ Kentrocapros Kaup.) 

 This genus differs from Aracana in having the carapace six- ridged.
