It is probable that this species will prove to be identical with the Ammotretis rostratus of Dr. 
Giinther, but his specimen must have been abnormally elongate, if the comparative measurement of height 
given in the Catalogue of Fishes, vol. iv, p. 458, is correct. Should further examination prove their 
identity, the range of the fish would be increased by Tasmania, whence it was originally described, and 
New Zealand, from which it has been recorded by Hutton, (Trans. N. Zeal. Inst. viii, p- 215), who had 
previously (op. cit. v, p. 267, pl. 11) described an A. guentheri from the same place. The Australian 
Museum is fortunate in possessing the type specimen of Count Castelnau’s Rhombosolea bassensis, labelled 
in his own handwriting, and it is undoubtedly this species.
