CHAPTER X. 



SPECIFIC NAMES, 



THIS list contains, it is hoped, all the specific names 

 appearing in the standard works on British fishes, in 

 addition to a selection of those used by foreign authors, for 

 the synonymy of the fishes is extensive and rather more 

 miscellaneous than usual. The numbers refer to the coloured 

 plates, in the list of which will be found the systematic and 

 popular names adopted throughout this book.
