125. Holocentrus suborbitalis Gill. 



Taken in abundance in the rock-pools. Our specimens do not materially 

 differ from the description of the type. The statement that "tlie tail behind the 

 vertical fins nearly equals a ninth of the total length" should doubtless read "the 

 height of the caudal peduncle behind the vertical fins nearly equals a ninth of the 

 total length." The length of the tail behind the vertical fins is about 3i in the total 

 length.
