SCARICLE. 



CALLYODON CYANOTiENIA (Bleeker)'." 



There are three examples of this beautiful fish in the Queensland Museum 

 collected by Dr. J. R. Tosh at Southport. S.Q. The species having been first 

 described from Java, and not since recorded from elsewhere, this too is an 

 Australian addition. 



ACANTHURIDJE. 

 ACANTHURUS UNICORNIS (Forskal). 411 



Hitherto the most southerly locality from which this fish has been recorded 

 on our coast is Dunk Island, N.Q;.. whence the Queensland Museum received a 

 fine example some years ago through the kindness of Mr. E. J. Banfielcl. During 

 last May, however, Mr. A. Davis, of the Brisbane Fish Market, notified the 

 Museum of the capture of a pair in a mullet net at Cape Moreton, S.Q., one of 

 which was with his usual liberality presented to the Museum, thus adding about 

 800 miles to the southerly range of the species. From Raine Island, an outlier 

 of the Barrier Reef, lying a little north of the latitude of Cape Grenville, Ave 

 also received a large example, along with which was the first Australian example 

 of A. tuberosum.* 7 



ZEBRASOMA HYPSELOPTERUM (Bleeker). s 



From Raine Island also came two magnificent specimens of this rare 

 fish, which was originally described from Flores, but does not appear "to have 

 been recorded since, so that it is also an addition to the Australian fauna. For 

 these and the Acanthuri mentioned above we are indebted to the kindness of the 

 Wanetta Pearling Co.

I have examined the types of these three species and, though they are in 

 very bad condition. I have little hesitation in pronouncing them valid.
