REMORA. 



{Remora remora Jordan and Evermann, 1898, III, p. 2271.)

Family ]\IALACANTHID^. 



207. Caulolatilus princeps (Jenyns). 

 (Jordan and Evermann. 1898, III, p. 2276.) 



This species is commonly taken off Point Loma. It is abun- 

 dant from Monterey to Cape San Lucas, and from the Galapagos 

 Islands (type locality) to the coast of Peru (Starks, 1906, p. 

 799), but between Cape San Lucas and the Galapagos Islands it 

 is unknown. We have compared specimens from our coast with 

 specimens from Peru, but can appreciate no difference.
