Type.—Imperfect distorted fish; Paris Museum of Natural History. 
A smaller and more slender species than the type, attaining a length of about 
50 em. One specimen is included in the published Catalog of the British Museum, 
and three belong to the Carnegie Museum, also a detached caudal fin, probably 
of this species. These bear the following departmental numbers: 4403 (in counter- 
part), 4207, 4313, 4518 (caudal fin in counterpart). 
Division SCLEROPAREI. 
Second suborbital bone more or less produced towards or anchylosed with 
the preoperculum (“‘suborbital stay”). Ventral fins thoracic. 
As remarked by Boulenger, the “cheek-armoured Acanthopterygians,” ‘‘Joues 
cuirassées’”’ of Cuvier, after the exclusion of the Sticklebacks, form a perfectly 
natural association, evidently derived from the Serranide, with which the more 
generalized forms have much in common. 
Family Corripm. 
Descriptions and figures of the skeleton of existing Cottide are given by 
C. Girard, “A Monograph of the Cottoids,”’ Smithson. Contrib., Vol. III, Art. 
No. 3 (1850). 
Genus Eocorrus. <A. 8. Woodward. 
This extinct genus is known by a solitary species from the marine Upper 
Eocene of Monte Bolea. According to Heckel, this species is closely related to 
Callipteryx, but it is distinguished from that genus by the presence of scales and 
the short and stout form of the dermal arches in the abdominal region. 
51. EHocottus veronensis (Volta). (Plate XCIX, fig. 1. Figure inverted.)
