The genus Sparus L. is divided into Sargues, Sparus sargus L. ; Daurades,

 and no type assigned to Sparus L. "Les Cantheres" is a name assigned (p. 485)

 Les Melettes, 457; type Clupea brunnichi Gmelin. 



This group is equivalent to Engraulis Cuvier, 1817. No Latin name is as- 

 signed. 



On page 14 of this volume the name Sci^na umbra L., originally based on 

 two species (the "Maigre" and the "Corb," confounded by Linnaeus), is definitely 

 restricted to the first of these, the Cheilodipterus aquila of Lacepede. This spe- 

 cies then becomes the type of Sci^na, replacing Argyrosomus de la Pylaie and 

 PsEUDOSCi^NA Bleaker. The "Corb" remains as Corvina nigra (Bloch).
