Head 3^ in length (3f- in total) ; depth 3. Two small blunt posterior 

 canines in upper jaw, near angle of mouth ; caudal short, almost truncate, 

 the middle rays a little shorter than the outer ones; 2 rows of scales 

 on cheek. In life, bright green, darker on the back, paler below ; a broad 

 lateral band mostly below level of eye and twice width of eye, of a brilliant 

 orange-yellow color extending from gill opening to opposite vent, where 

 it ceases almost abruptly ; upper part of this band a yellow streak more 

 than % as wide as eye, and nearly on level of pupil, persistent and bright 

 yellow in alcohol, while the orange fades to pale ; behind the vent, the 

 side is a little brassy or yellowish, this shade scarcely contrasting with 

 the green ground color; there is also in life an ill-defined band of blood 

 red nearly a scale wide above and below the ground color ; base of pectoral 

 with a blue-black mark, upper part of head dark green, below eye, bright 

 yellowish green, -with some bluish markings on opercle; caudal fin greeu, 

 its outer rays blackish; other fins injured in both the typical examples, 

 the dorsal bright green at base, ventrals pale ; teeth pale. Gulf of Mexico, 

 in deep water. Two specimens were obtained from stomachs of Eed 

 Groupers (Epinephelus morio), the first one by Mr. Charles H. Bollman, off 

 Tampa Bay. The second was sent later by Mr. Stearns. The latter, 5 

 inches long, is especially the type of the foregoing description. (Named
