Types of all three forms in the Stockliolra Museum, 

 After a prolonged examination of the unique type specimens 

 I have failed to find any characters by which incisirostris and 

 setarius can be distinguisiied from limis. The structural 

 characters cited by Gyllciihal in the case of incisirostris arise 

 simply from the fact that the type is entirely denuded of 

 scales ; while setarius differs from limis only in its much 

 smaller size.
