Notes on Recent Fish Literature. — In the Proceedings of the 
Zoological Scciety of London for 1899 (Pt. IV, p. 956, 1900) Mr. G. 
A. Boulenger records reptiles and fishes collected by John Whitehead 
in Hainan. The following are described and figured as new: 
Corcoperca whiteheadi, Gymnostonius lepturus, Barilius hainanensis. 
In Annales and Magazine of Natural History (Ser. I-V, No. 26, 
p. 165) Boulenger describes three new species of Siluroid fishes, from 
the streams of São Paulo, near Santos, Brazil. These are: Plecosto- 
mus heylandi, Loricaria latirostris, and Loricaria paulina. 
In the Zoologischer Anzeiger for June 14, 1900, Hector F. E. Jern- 
gersen, of Copenhagen, gives a study of the urogenital organs of 
Polypterus bichir and Amia calva. 
In the records of the Expedition Antarctique Belge, M. Louis 
Dollo, of the museum at Brussels, describes a new deep-sea fish of 
the family of Chenichthyide under the name of Racovitsia glacialis, 
an ally of Gerlachea and Cryodraco, already described by him. 
Incidentally he calls attention to the fact that the name of the deep- 
sea genus of Macruride, Moseleya, is preoccupied by Moseleya 
Quelch, 1884, a genus of corals. The genus of fishes may stand 
as Dolloa, zo» gen. nov., and its typical species as Dolloa longifilis. 
In another paper of similar date Dollo describes as new Macrurus 
lecointei, also from Antarctic depths. In the recent subdivision of 
this group this species would be placed in the genus Dolloa. It 
may stand as Dodlloa lecointei. 
In the Proceedings of the Washington Academy of Sciences (II, 161), 
Dr. Charles H. Gilbert records the fishes collected by Arthur W. 
Greeley as a member of the Branner-Agassiz expedition to Brazil. 
Eighty-five species were obtained, four of them being described and 
figured as new. These are: Upeneus caninus, from Pernambuco; 
Apogon brasilianus, from Mamanguape Reef ; Sphroides greeleyi, from 
Maceio, and Brannerella brasiliensis from Maceio. Brannerella 
belongs to the Clininz, being near Starksia, differing in the detached
