'I Centropristis macropoma, sp. n., Giinther, Proc. Zool. Soc. 1864, p. 146, 
from the Pacific Coast of Panama. 
H Serranus longispinis, from Madras, and Serranm mvemcincius, from the 
Cape of Good Hope, sp. n., Kner, Sitzg-sber. Acad. Wiss. Wien, 1864, xlix. 
p. 483. 
; Serramis angustifrom, sp. n. ?, Steindachner, Verb. Zool.-Bot. Ges. Wien, 
1864, p. 230, taf 7. figs. 2-3, from Cuba. D. A. [This is not 
qngus (Bl.), which has proved to be an Indian species.] 
^ Grystes hmidatus, sp. n., Guichenot, in Maillard, Notes sur Tile de la Re- 
union, App. p. 4.— D. 10 I 11. A. ; a notch between spinous and soft 
dorsal fins ; body with small, black, crescent-shaped spots. — ^Bourbon. [Ac- 
cording to the views of modern ichthyologists the genus Grystes is restricted 
to the American freshwater species, and therefore we doubt whether M. 
Guichenot has assigned the proper position to this species.] 
/ Mesoprion aratus, sp. n., Gunther, Proc. Zool. Soc. 1864, p. 146, from 
Guatemala and Panama. — Mesoprion griseoides, sp. n., Guichenot, in Maillard, 
Notes sur File de la Reunion, App. p. 2. — Bourbon. 
•i Ajwgon maculiferusy sp. n., Garrett, Proc. Calif. Acad. Nat. Sc. iii. p. 106, 
from the Sandwich Islands. B. 7 | y. A. -j. L. lat. 24. With longitudinal 
rows of small olivaceous spots. 
^ Amhassis robustus (GUnth.) is redescribed and figured by Steindachner, in 
Arch, per la Zool. 1864, p. 197, tav. 4. fig. 1. 
GlyphodcSy g. n., Guichenot, in Maillard, Notes sur File de la Reunion, 
App. p. 3. This genua would appear to be intermediate between Percidce 
and Sparidce [if its characters be correctly defined, and if it does not belong 
to the Pharyngognaths]. M. Guichenot places it in the Percoids : Teeth in 
a single series in both jaws, flattened and notched at the tip; vomerine and 
palatine teeth present, \dlliform. Prseoperculum smooth, not serrated ; oper- . 
culum terminating in two points. Glyphodes aprionoides : D. jy. A. ; the 
height of the body is one-fifth of the total length. — Bourbon. [If the genus 
be valid, its name must be altered. 
Odojitonectes, Dr. Bleeker states that this genus has been erroneously 
separated from Ccesio, but without giving any reason for this opinion. 
Therefore, for the present, we shall retain it. Nederl. Tydschr. Dierk. 1864, 
p. 181.
