these are full of spawn at a length of five inches, we should regard 

 them without much hesitation as the young of G. sordidus. As it is, 

 it is not unlikely that G. stigmoeus will prove to be simply the young of 

 the latter species.

57. CITHARICHTHYS UHLERI. 



Citharichthys uhleri Jordan, sp. nor. 



Habitat. — West Indian fauna. 



This species is based on a single specimen in the Museum of Com-

 Hayti by Mr. P. E. Uhler, the well-known entomologist, for whom we 

 have named the species. 



The species is close to Githarichthys macrops, bat its fin-rays and 

 scales are considerably more numerous than in the latter.
