8 OfFifhes. Part! 
of his Eye-Brows a little hollow. His Eyes round, above 
? an inch over. His Mouth very broad and femilunar, like 
that of a Frog 3 from whence I take leave for his Name. 
His nether Chap a little broad and more forward than the 
upper. Without any Teeth, but rough like a File. The 
Gills s an inch long, an inch and * behind the Eyes. The 
Fins are five. The Gill-Fins above an inch long, almoft as 
broad. Before the end of the Tail, one above about an 
inch long,that underneath broken off. The Tail-Fin above 
* an inch long, near as high. The Anus opens'an inch and 
quarter before the Tail-end. 
He is cover d all over with a very hard and tough Skin, 
( now ) of a yellowifh ftraw-colour. Armed round about 
with ftrong Spikes about * of an inch long, couched back- 
ward, and fixed with three Roots, as in the former. But not, 
as thofe, round, but flat with two edges like the point of a 
Sword. 
It may further be noted ofthefe Spikes, That being fixed 
in the Skin, both here and in the other kinds, fo as to couch 
and point backward, the fifti needs not to tack about, but is 
at the fame time in a pofture of defence, and of flight, for its 
furer efcape. 
The EGYPTIAN GLOB-FISH. It differs from the reft, 
efpecially by the fmallnefs of its Prickles, which are rather 
like the little Thorns on a young Rasperry-Bujh. He is not 
armed with them, as Rondeletius faith, all over 3 the Skin 
behind the Gills for the length of * of an inch, and on the 
lower part of the Tail, being bald.

per Lip ftretched thence to the breadth of ? an inch. Each
