 fix rays in the gill-membrane ; body lanceolate ; ventral lins 

 of two united rays ; anal fin ditlind. 



'l"he fpccies of this genus are enumerated in the Gmelinian 

 Syft.Nat. under two feftions, the fird comprehending thofe 

 having the head creiled ; the fecond, fuch as have the head 

 Imooth, or without a crelh Galmita, criftatus, cornntus, 

 ocellaris, fafciatus, gattorugine, fuperciliofus, tentacularis, 

 fimus, and phycis, are the creiled kinds ; the fpecies of the 

 fecond feftion are pholis, gunnellus, punftatus, muftelarif, 

 viviparus, luinpenus, raninus, murxnoides ; which fee re- 

 fpeclively. 



Bofc propofes an arrangement very different from the pre- 

 ceding, fjr the fpecies included in his genus blennius. Thefe 

 he divides into four feftions ; the firll including le blennie 

 lievre {hhnnius ocellaris Linn.), and le blennie phycis, be- 

 caufe thefe have two dorfal fins, and filaments or appen- 

 dages upon the head. The fecond divlfion, comprehending 

 thofe with only one dorfal fin and filaments upon the head, 

 includes le blennie mediterraneen {gaihis niediUrrajuus Linn.), 

 Ic blennie gattorugine, le blennie fourcilleux, le blennie cornu, 

 le blennie tentacule', le blennie fnjefin {blenniiu Jimus Linn.), 

 le blennie coquillade (^bltiinius galc-rita Linn.), le blennie fan- 

 tcur (a fpecies difcovered by Commerfon in the South feas), 

 and le blennie pinaru [llfiinius cnjlatiis Linn.) The third and 

 fourth fedtion has no appendage upon the head, but are diilin- 

 guillied from each other by having either two dorfal fins, or 

 only one. Thofe with two are le blennie gadoi'de [gadvs alius 

 Linn.), le blennie belette, and le blennie tridatlyle. Lallly, 

 in the fourth feftion are le blennie pholis, le blenne bofquien 

 of Lacepede, le blennie ovovipare {Lleniitus viviparus Linn.), 

 le blennie gunel, le blennie pointille of Lacepede, le blennie 

 garamit, [gadus falarlas of Forflcal), le blennie lumpenc, and 

 le blennie torfiv. 



BLENNORRHAGL'!l, in Surgn-y, is a term lately in- 

 troduced to exprefs the varieties of a morbid affeftion, more 

 generally called Gonorrhcea. This term is derived from 

 jSXsvv®-, mucus, and f !.f, _/?;.'o ,• and is therefore equivalent to 

 the Latin word Mucifluxus ; but it is dillinguiiTied from 

 Blennorrhea, which denotes the fymptom ufually called 

 Gleet. The author who has principally endeavoured to 

 introduce this new epithet, is Dr. Schwediauer. His clafll- 

 fication is as follows : 

 Claflis, Locales, 



Ordo, Phlogofes, or Mucifluxus.
