92. Amia fasciata ((juoy & Gaimard). 



Four specimens from Bacon (no. 5752; length 1.25 to 1.5 in.), similar in every respect to a specimen from 

 Samoa. The upper and lower bands converge on the caudal fin, touching or nearly so, the median band near 

 tip of tail. 



The type of Apogon fasciatus Quoy & Gaimard, came from Guam and the same specimen appears to have 

 been used by Cuvier & Valenciennes as one of the types of their Apogon noremfasciatus publislied five years 

 later. The other specimen in the possession of Cuvier & Valenciennes came from Timor and, according to a 

 recent note from !Mr. VaiUant, appears to be the same species.

93. Aroia chrysopoma (Bleoker). 



Two specimens from Bacon (no. 3976 and 3365; length 3.1 and 4 in.). 



Head 2.85 in length; depth 2.85; eye 2.75 in head; dorsal ^ ii-i, 9; anal ii, 8; scales 2-29-lJ: posterior 

 limb of preopercle serrate, anterior limb entire; maxillary extending to below middle of eye; gillrakers 2fl on 

 lower limb. 



These specimens agree with Bleeker's description, except that the color in spirits is sUghtly different. They 

 are yellowish with 2 very indistinct dusky longitudinal lines, the lower one being on the median line, and easily 

 overlooked; a black caudal spot just above lateral line, 5 pearl-colored spots on opercle; anterior of spinous 

 dorsal dusky; other fins inmiaculate.

94. Amia hartzfeldi Bleeker. 



Nine specimens from Bacon (no. 2899, 4194, 4195, 4196 and 3810 to 3S14; length 3.2 to 4 in.). 

 These seem in every respect similar to specimens from Cavite, and agree entirely with Bleeker's colored 

 plate of this species.

95. Amia savayensis (Giinther). 



Six specimens from Bacon (no. 3510, 3880 to 3S«3 and 3885; length 2.75 to 3.75 in.), all having the dark 

 saddle over caudal peduncle, dark upper and lower margin to caudal, and a more or less distinct dusky line 

 from eye to angle of preopercle; anterior spines of spinous dorsal dusky; anterior rays and tip of soft dorsal 

 dusky; only two specimens show traces of vertical bands seen on some Samoan specimens.
