470 DR. R. O. CUNNINGHAM ON THE REPTILES, 
at Punta Arenas, in the Strait of Magellan, and in Fortune Bay, on the west coast of 
Patagonia. : 
9. NOTOTHENIA CORNUCOLA, Rich. 
This species, from which N. virgata does not appear to be truly separable, is very 
common in the Strait of Magellan and channels on the west coast of Patagonia ; and I also 
met with it at Chiloe. 
10. NOTOTHENIA MACROCEPHALUS, Günth. | 
This species, readily distinguishable from all the other Notothenie, I only obtained in 
Fortune Bay, in the channels. There it appeared to be abundant, a good many speci- 
mens having been taken on fishing-lines. The colour of the back is a rich golden-brown, 
becoming golden-yellow on the sides and belly. The largest specimen taken was con- 
siderably upwards of a foot long. 
11. HARPAGIFER BISPINIS, Forst. 
This odd-looking little fish is not uncommon in the Strait of Magellan and western 
channels. Many specimens were taken in Tilly Bay, Fuegia. 
SCLENIDA. 
12. UMBRINA OPHICEPHALUS, Jenyns. 
This species is rather abundant on the Chilian coast. The small specimen preserved 
was obtained in Herradura Bay. | 
SCOMBRIDA. 
13. ECHENEIS LINEATA, Menzies. 
A small specimen of this species was taken in the towing-net between the Cape Verdes . 
and Rio de Janeiro 
BLENNIDA. 
14. BLENNIUS GENTILIS, Girard. 
A number of specimens apparently referable to this species, previously recorded from 
California, were taken on the screw of the ‘ Nassau,' at Rio de Janeiro, in August 1867. 
15. BLENNIUS SORDIDUS, Benn. : 
A specimen of this species, founded on a Blenny from the Sandwich Islands, was obtained 
inthe Bay of Coquimbo. 
16. CLINUS NUCHIPINNIS, Quoy et Gaim. . 
Many specimens of this species were observed at St. Vincent, darting actively about the 
rocky pools; and several were preserved. 
17 TRIPTERYGIUM, sp. 
À minute specimen of a species of this genus was obtained in the dredge at Port Otway: 
Cape Tres Montes, in April 1868; but it does not admit of identification.
