92. Aniia fasciata (Quuy ct tiaimard). 



Four specimens tVoiii Bacon (no. 57.52; !<mii;(1i 1.2.5 to 1 ..5 in.), similar in every respect to a specimen from 

 Samoa. The upper and lower hands converge on the caudal fin, touching or nearly so, the median Ijand near 

 tip of tail. 



The type of Apogan fasciatus Quoy & Gaimard, came from Guam and the same specimen appears to have 

 been u.sed by Cuvier & Valenciennes as one of the types of their Apogon novemfasciaius published five years 

 later. The other specimen in the possession of Cuvier & Valencicimes came from Timor and, according to a 

 rece'nt note from Mr. Vaillant, appears to be the same species.

93. Aniia chrysopoma (Bleeker). 



Two specimens from Bacon (no. 3976 and 3365; length 3.1 and 4 in.). 



Head 2.85 in lengtli; depth 2.85; eye 2.75 in head; dorsal vii-i, 9; anal ii, 8; .scales 2-29-6; posterior 

 liml> of preopercle serrate, anterior limb entire; maxillary extending to below middle of eye; gillrakers 20 on

 are yellowish with 2 very indistinct dusky longitudinal lines, the lower one being on the median line, and easily 

 overlooked; a black caudal spot just above lateral line, 5 pearl-colored spots on opercle; anterior of spinous 

 dorsal dusky; other fins immaculate.

Nine specimens from Bacon (no. 2899, 4194, 4195, 4196 and 3S10 to 3814; length 3.2 to 4 in.). 

 These seem in every respect similar to specimens from Cavite, and agree entirely with Bleeker's colored 

 plate of this species.
