13. Bajonado. (13, 8, 1). Pagellus Bajonado Bl. 



Cited by Bl., 284, Sparus Bajonado, doubtful species ; by Guich. P. Penna, 

 C.V., with doubt. 



14. Caxis. (14, 8, 2.) Mesoprion caxis Bl. 



Cited by Bl. 284, Sparus caxis, doubtful species. It is the Mesoprion griseus 

 Cuv. 2, 469. The letter x being pronounced j in the old Spanish, it should 

 be written now Cajis, or rather Caji. 



15. Cochino. (15,9). Balistes vetulaL. 

 Cited by Bl. 470; by Holl. and Guich. 



16. Sobaco. (17, 10). Balistes macrops Poey. 



Cited by Bl., 465, as a variety of Bal. maculatus L., and by Holl. under the 

 name of Balistes longúsimus Holl. Mr. Guichenot, who has followed for the 

 Balistides the unpublished monograph of Holl., calls it also B. longissimus 

 without naming the author. It appears that he has forgotten to name Hol- 

 lard ; he refers, also, the species to Bl. Syst. 464, n. 2, which is the B. hispidus 

 L., probably by a misprint, instead of, n. 3, cited by Blkr., Balistes maculatus L. 

 See Poey, Mem. 2, 326. 



17. Galafate. (18, 11, 1). Balistes piceus Poey, (1). 



Cited B. ringens L. by Bl., 473, Holl., Guich. Blkr. The vulgar name Gala- 

 fate is a corruption of Calafate, which means Calfateur, (calker). 



18. Cucoyo. (19, 11, 2). Balistes cicatricosus Poey, (2). 



Cited by Bl., 475, B. Brasiliensis var. ; by Holl. and Guich., B. calolepis Holl. 

 Later Hollard referred it to his B. lineo-punctatus, which appears to be the 

 same as the B. curassavicus Gm. It is now written Cocuyo. 



19. Catalufa. (20, 12, 1). Priacanlhus catalufa Poey, (3.) 



Cited by Bl., 304, Anlhias macrophthalmus, a species of the East Indies ; by 

 Cuv., 397, Priac. macrophthalmus, the male of which, says he, is the Pr. cepe- 

 dianus Desm., in which he is mistaken. 



20. Quiebra-acha. (21, 12, 2). Chorinemus quiebra Cuv. 

 Cited by Cuv. 8, 396 ; by Bl., 25, Scomber aculeatus var. 



21. Matejuelo blanco. (22, 13, 1). Malacanthus Plumieri Bl. 



Cited by Bl. Sparus oblongus, p. 283 ; but it is the same as his Coryphsena 

 Plumieri, p. 298 ; cited by Cuv., R. An. p. 264 ; by Val. 13, 319. 



22. Matejuelo colorado. (23, 13, 2). Holocentrum Matejuelo Bl. 



Cited by Bl., 206, Amphiprion Matejuelo, doubtful species ; by Cuv., 3, 186, 

 Hoi. longipinne, a species very nearly allied, if it is not the same ; in any case 

 Bloch has the priority. 



23. Morcielago. (25, 14). Dactylopterus volitans L. 



Cited by Cuv., 4, 117. This vulgar name, so written, is a corruption of the 

 Spanish word Murciélago (Bat.) 



24. Volador. (28, 15). Bxoccetus mesogaster Bl. 

 Cited by Bl. 430; by Val. 19, 120. 



25. Bonaci cardenal. (29, 16, 1). Serranus cardinalis Val. 



Cited by Val. 2, 379. Bl., 77, has confounded, under the name of Johnius 

 guttatus, this species with the following ; his name should not be preserved, 

 because it had been previously employed by Linnaeus. 



26. Bonaci arara. (30, 16, 2). Serranus Bonaci Poey. 



Cited by Poey, Mem. 2, 129, 352, instead of Ser. Arara Val. 2, 377 ; Johnius 

 guttatus var. 



27. Chapín?. (31, 17, 1). Ostracion, (4) 



Cited by BL, 499, Ostr. bicaudalis L., as well as by Holl. 



1863.]
