Fig. 15. — Carangus hippoides Jenkins, new species. Type. 
This description is based on a specimen, the type, No. 50846, IT. S. N. M. (field No. 2737), 0 
inches in length to tip of caudal, collected by Dr. Wood at Honolulu. Two smaller examples were 
collected by Mr. McGregor at Ivihi, Maui, each 7 inches in length. This fish is quite common at times 
at Honolulu and is highly prized by the natives as food.
