Migratory. This species was, with the preceding, abundant at times 
between July and January. On January 9, 1890, one was taken in the 
bay; on February 11 another. On February 19, 1890, a boatload of 
this species and ef Cynoscion parvipinne was brought by Chinese fisher-

Cynoscion nobile (Ayres). 
R. Smith, ’80; J. & G., ’80a, 456; id., ’81, 48; id., ’82, 579; R. Smith, 85, June. 
Migratory. This species entered San Diego Bay in April (26) and 
remained till November. Those in the bay are all young specimens 
less than 600 millimeters long. They are taken with the seine and with 
hook and line. Larger ones, reaching 1.2 meters, are occasionally (No- 
vember 7,.1889,) taken off Point Loma. Either this species or the next 
were reported to have ascended a stream produced by the waste water 
of the Sweetwater dam. It was brought to the San Francisco market 
May 2, 1890. P

id., 782, 580; R. Smith, 785, June. 
This species probably enters the bay with the preceding species, 
being also migratory. The first individual was seen March 21, 1889, 
the last December 30.

R. Smith, ’80; J. & G., ’80a, 456; id., ’81, 48; id., 782, 582; R. Smith, ’85, June. 
Migratory. This species is said by Jordan to be abundant during 
summer about Santa Cruz. It does not reach San Diego till September 
(10, 1889), and is abundant at least till March. The time of its disap- 
pearance has not been determined, as it was not seen in the spring of 
1889.
