58 HIALMAR RENDAHL 
Four specimens, 143—35 mm. (s.c.), caugth at the shore, */4 and 1°/s 1917. 
Thirteen specimens, 92—37 mm. (s. c.), from a lobster-trap about 50 m. 
off shore, 73/4 1917. 
The irregular dark cross-bars on the sides of the body are very distinct 
in the small specimens up to about 55 mm. tot. length. They gradually be- 
come more obsolete, traces of them can, however, be distinguished also in the 
specimen of 92 mm. length. 
The occurrence of this species on the Chilean coast is very doubtful. 
The specimen mentioned by GUNTHER from »Chile» is, as the note of the 
same author shows, not to be identified with this species, the single statement 
being therefore DELFIN’s notice, that there are two samples of this species in 
the Museo de Valparaiso, »which are from Valparaiso».
