This paper is based upon the following material : Collections 

 made by the senior author at San Diego during the months from 

 December 20, 1902, to March 15, 1903, and from May 20 to 

 August 15, 1903 ; by both authors at San Diego and La Jolla 

 during the month from May 18 to June 18, 1905 ; a small col- 

 lection made by the junior author during the last week of June, 

 1905, at Laguna and Newport Bay ; and material collected at 

 moderate depths by members of the Marine Biological Associa- 

 tion of San Diego during their dredging operations about San 

 Pedro in the summer months of 1901 and 1902, about San Diego 

 during the same months of 1903, 1904, and 1905, including a few 

 fishes collected about San Clemente Island in 1905. 



We have endeavored to list all of the fishes that have been 

 recorded on the California coast south of Point Conception with- 

 in the fiftv-fathom line.^
