Carpilodes monticulosus A. M. Edwards. 



Carpilodcs »wnticulosus Alcock, Jouni. Asiat. Soc. Bengal, vol. 67, p. 86, 1898. 



The species is known from the Indian Ocean and ranges through the 

 Pacific to the Tuamotus and to Hawaii where it is very common. 

 One speciment was taken at Fanning Island. 



Carpilodes pallidus Borradaile. 



Carpilodcs pallidus Borradaile, Proc. Zool. Soc. London, 1900, p. 586, pi. 40, fig. 1. 



Previous records are from the Chagos and Maldive Archipelagoes in 

 the Indian Ocean and Rotuma in the Pacific. Four specimens were col- 

 lected at Palmyra and 3 at Fanning Island. 



Carpilodes viallantinus (A. M. Edwards). 



Carpilodes viallantinus Alcock, Journ. .\siat. Soc. Bengal, vol. 67, p. 85. 1898. 



The species ranges from Mauritius through the Indian Ocean and is 

 known in the Pacific from Fiji, Samoa and Hawaii. Eleven specimens 

 were collected at Palmyra Island. 



Carpilodes cariosus Alcock. 



Carpilodcs cariosus Alcock. Journ. Asiat. Soc. Bengal, vol. 67. p. 86. 1898. 



The species is recorded by Alcock from off Ceylon in 261^-34 fathoms, 

 and oflf Andamans in 10-15 fathoms. Rathbun reports it from Salomon 

 and Amirante Islands and other localities in the western Indian Ocean at 

 depths down to 80 fathoms. Borradaile records the species from the Mal- 

 dive Archipelago at depths from 20-40 fathoms. Caiman reports it from 

 Christmas Island in the Indian Ocean. Two specimens collected at Pal- 

 myra Island, one by C. Montague Cooke in 1913 and one by Mr. L. A. 

 Thurston in 1922, correspond very closely both in structural features and 

 coloration with Alcock's description of this species. From previously re- 

 ported localities, the normal habitat of the species would seem, however, 

 to be at somewhat greater depths than the shallow water of the reef from 

 which the Palmyra specimens were taken. 



Liomera cinctimana (White). 



Liomera ciiirtinuina .\lcock, Journ. .\siat. Soc. Bengal, vol. 67. p. 88, 1898. 



The species ranges from Mauritius through the Indian and Pacific 

 Oceans to the west coast of North America. No records are known for 

 Hawaii. There is one specimen in the Bishop Museum from Palmyra 

 Island.
