i''This group is distinguished mainly by tlie undivided post-temporal, the reduction in the number of gill 

 arches to Z, and by the absence of peculiarities shown by related forms." Jordan and Evermann. 



="A well-marked group of small fishes, constituting a single family." Jordan and Evennann. 



Hjn account of the structure of the priEcaudal vertebrae, Apodirlithi/s and Pholir: are not placed by Boulenger 

 in Blenniida-, but in a family— Pholidida'— by themselves. I do not venture to so place them, lest in so doing other 

 genera which may be included in these two by Boulenger (Xererpes for instance) might also for the same reason 

 require to be placed in Pholidida;.
