 Saurus badi, Cuvier, belongs according to M. Valenciennes to a dis- 

 tinct genus, following that of Saurus, and M. Valenciennes has cor- 

 rected the nomenclature as follows. 



Saurida, Cuvier and Valenciennes, 1849. 



The palatals have on the inner side of the long band of teeth a 

 small distinct group of sharp teeth, surrounded by minute asperities. 

 The palatals consequently have two separate series of teeth, whereas in 

 the genus Saurus they have but a single such. The internal ventral 

 rays are not so elongated as those of Saurus ; two oblong fossets on 

 the sides of the palatals, but none in front of the velum palatinum, 

 like those of Saurus.
