the throat, extending higher than the bases of the pectorals. A short, flattened, 
fringed postorbital tentacle ; no other filaments. Dorsal origin above bases of 
pectorals ; dorsal notch very shallow; extremities of rays protruding beyond 
the membrane. Anal origin below the tenth ray of the dorsal, rays of the 
fin exserted ; the membranes descend from ray to ray, forming a serrated 
margin. Pectorals broad, nearly straight on the upper border, convex on the 
hinder edge, broadly rounded on the lower margin. Caudal one-fifth of the 
total length, medium rays longest, separated from dorsal and anal. The rays 
protrude on all the fins. 
Color uniform dark olivaceous, lighter on the belly, anal, ventrals, and 
pectorals ; each of the fins except the caudal with a whitish edge. Very young 
with more of light color on lower surfaces and fins. 
Found “ hopping about on the rocks above high tide” on Solo Island, North 
Astrolabe Reef, Fiji Islands.

In all likelihood this fish belongs to Bloch’s species, though the figure given 
by that author neglects the fringed filaments on the nape, the nasal filaments, 
and the short barbel below each angle of the mouth. The bands on our fish 
are less numerous and extend but halfway up on the dorsal; thence they are 
broken into small spots.

On the middle of the flank of very young specimens of this fish there is 
a longitudinal streak of brown, becoming wider and more noticeable from the 
ventrals to the base of the caudal. Another streak of brown extends along the 
median line of the ventral surface. On the middle of the back there is 
a vertebral line of very small dots with a line of similar dots immediately
