ADDITIONS TO THE FAUNA OF SAN DIEGO. 



BY CARL H, EIGENMANN & ROSA S. EIGENMANN. 



Within the past five months the conditions for the study 

 of the ichthyological fauna of San Diego have become 

 very favorable. Before that time each fisherman dis- 

 posed of his catch as best he could; now practically all 

 the fish caught are brought into two markets where we 

 are enabled to examine the catch of each day as it is un- 

 loaded. To these conditions we owe the ability to enu- 

 merate many forms which are either new or have not be- 

 fore been found near San Diego. We are under many 

 obligations to the fishermen who always desire to preserve 

 strange forms for us, and whose knowledge in certain 

 cases even a professional ichthyologist might envy. 



The types here enumerated will be deposited in the U. 

 S. National Museum, the Museum of the California 

 Academy of Sciences, and in our private collections. 

 The catalogue numbers given in this paper refer to the 

 register of the California Academy" of Sciences. 



We are indebted to Mr. S. Garman for tracings of va- 

 rious figures of Scopeloids otherwise inaccessible to us.
