344 RAINBOW WRASSE* Class IV, 



The subject figured by Block, has the body 

 marked by parallel longitudinal stripes of green, 

 yellow, deep violet, and lighter shades of the 

 same color, fading into a silvery hue. These 

 stripes are very distinct ; the principal yellow 

 lateral line is undulated, rather than indented, 

 as it is represented to be in the Cornish speci- 

 men, Ed.
