 This fish is enumerated in this list upon the evidence 

 of a number of jaws from specimens caught by local fisher- 

 men, and which I referred to this species. The fish figured 

 by Macleay in the Proc. L.S., New South Wales, seems to 

 differ from the one figured by Day in his ''Fishes of India." 

 I have never seen this fish in a fresh state.
