GLYPHISODON PALMERI Ogilby. 



(Plate X, fig. 1.) 



GJyphisodon palmeri Ogilby, Mem. Qld. Mas., ii, 1913, p. 87, pi. xxii, fig. 2. 



As the original figure of this species is imperfect in several details, I have 

 figured another specimen, 135 mm. long from the snout to the end of the middle 

 caudal rays, which is well preserved though it has lost many of its scales. 

 Fourteen specimens, 42-135 mm. long, show that the disposition of the transverse 

 bands and the other characters of the species are very constant, and indicate that 

 G. palmeri is a valid species. 



LocalifAes. — This species is evidently not uncommon on the Queensland 

 Coast, i have speared it among coral on the surface of the reef at Masthead 

 Island, while the Queensland State trawler has taken it in 25-30 fathoms near 

 the Capricorn Group. It has also been taken in a hauling net on a beach at 

 Cape Bedford and in a reef pool near-by on Two Isles.
