66. Gymnothorax fimbriatus (Bennett). 
(Murxnophis stellatus Lacéptde?; Gynnothorax isingleenoides Bleeker.) | 
One specimen from Takao, twelve and one-half inches long, agreeing in all 
respects with Bleeker’s description and figure (of young) of G. isingleenoides. The 
Specimen agrees very well also with examples from Samoa, recorded by Jordan & 
Seale as G. stellatus (Lacépéde) and, with a single young specimen from Sumatra 
received from Mr. H. W. Fowler. It may be that the name stellatus should stand 
in place of fimbriatus. Murezna bullata Richardson, figured by Bleeker, seems to be 
distinct. 
67. Gymnothorax flavomarginatus (Riippell). | 
One specimen from Takao twenty-two inches long. 
68. Gymnothorax pseudothyrsoideus (Bleeker). (Perhaps not of Day.) 
A large specimen two feet in length from Takao, appears to agree in all essential 
respects with Bleeker’s figure and description. The dorsal begins half way between 
the gill-opening and the back of the orbit ; the ground color is rather dark brown, 
finely reticulated, or marbled everywhere with lighter, and is scarcely paler on the 
chin and the belly than on the upper parts; there is no black about the gill-opening, 
and no light border to the fins except at the tip of the tail. The species is near
