Upper figure. 



The WANDERING CH.ETODON is an example of a very large genus, comprising about 

 seventy species, all of which are striking from their shape and color. Some of them 

 are almost circular or disc-like in the general contour of their figure, and the arrange- 

 ment of the markings is very conspicuous. The muzzle is moderate in length, and 

 the scales are rather large in proportion to the dimensions of the body.
