Haemulum xanthofterum, Cuv., Val, V., 234; Gunthor I., 819. 



Radii D Xll, 14—15; A, III, 7. Scales 6—52—11. 



The specimens in tho collections agree closely with the descriptions of Valenciennes and Gunther. The young 

 laok 11»' oblique yellow bands below the lateral line. They have two indistinct longitudinal brown ones above the 

 lateral lino. 



St. Croix, Capt. Thos. Davidson and R. E. Griffith, M. D. 



HAEMULUM LUTEUM, Pooy, Synopsis Son.; Momorias II., 174. 



Scales 8—50—16 ; Radii, D X 11, 17, A III, 8. 



The specimens differ from flioso desoribed by Poey, in having the spot behind the preopercular angle very indis- 

 tinct, and only a part of tho blue baud that crosses at that point. 



The oyo also is 4 times in tho length of the head, instead of 4.5 times, but the largest specimen is only five inches 

 long. Nine blue longitudinal bands on a golden ground ; three above, and one on tho lateral lino. Tho basis of the 

 caudal is of a dirty shade ; scarcely black as Poey describes.

Umbiuna msoussonettii, Cuv. Val. V., 130. 



Var. I. Depth 4 times in length ; Radii D. XI— 27; k, II, 6 ; scales, 5-58-10 : nine vertical brown bars. 



St. Martins, R. E. Rijgersma, M. D. 



Var. II. lake tho above, but deeper; depth 3.3-5 times in total length, and no vortical brown bars. 



St. Martins, R. E. Rijgersma, M. D. 



Gunther gives scales of the lateral line, 48, and that tho maxillary only reaches the lino of tho orbit which may 

 be an error, as he describes from skins only : otherwise the species is different from that of Cuvior and Valenciennes.
