 upon it. Dorsal surface backward to insertion of dorsal 

 fin, olive; a blue metallic reflection above lat. line from 

 nape backward. Ventral surface backward to base of ven- 

 trals strongly scarlet-tinged, the red and black dots ag- 

 gregated on the breast to form crescents parallel with 

 the scale margins; premaxillary posterioril}^ and maxil- 

 lary, checks and opercles also strongly red-tinged, this re- 

 gion and the breast appearing, at a glance, to be "blood- 

 shot.''

Ennichthys Jieennanni Girard is not a synonym of this 

 species. It probably is identical with AmphisticJuis 

 argentc7is Agassiz. The proportions, color, etc., agree 

 with Ainphistichns argcnteiis Agassiz, but not with A. 

 rJiodotenis Agassiz .

 1878 (Los Animas Bay). Clevelandia longipinnis Eigenm. 

 and Eigenm. Proc. Cal. Acad. Sci, 2d Ser., Vol. I, 73, 

 1888 (San Francisco). 



This species has so far been known from three speci- 

 mens in Dr. Steindachner's collections from Las Animas 

 Bay, Gulf of California, and a single specimen from San 

 Francisco. 



We find it to be the commonest fish in San Diego Bay 

 where it is found in all the little pools between high and 

 low tide marks.
