j! nasal spine above and within anterior nostril, 3 supraocular, 1 anterior, 2 close together, posteriorly; 
no coronal spine; behind the last supraocular spine, a row of 3 spines in an irregular line with it, 
just within the last a small spine; a tubercle on the posterior border of orbit, behind which is a 
[I row of 3 spines, the last at the angle of the gill-slit; upper angle of opercle with 2 diverging flattish 
I sharp spines (the lower on right side double in the type); end of preopercle with 4 spines, the upper 
( and lower larger than the middle ones; preorbital with a tubercle near border of eye; suborbital ridge 
jj with 5 spines, the last abutting against the upper of the preorbital spines, below the fourth on the 
ridge a small spine; spinous dorsal low, longest spine equal to eye; soft dorsal higher, 2.6 in head; 
1 second anal spine longest, 2.2 in head, its tip reaching tip of third spine; soft anal 2 in head; caudal 
ij rounded, 2 in head; pectoral 1.3 in head, the middle rays longest; scales moderate; body, top of 
'' head, cheeks, opercles, and preopercles scaled; fins naked except base of caudal and proximal half of 
anterior surface of pectoral, which have fine scales; lateral line evident and in a nearly straight line 
from upper angle of gill-slit to base of caudal. 
Very bright in coloration in life, but unfortunately details of color were not taken. 
Color in alcohol, body and head gray, well covered with dark-brown mottlings, gathered on sides 
into 3 indistinctly outlined areas or broad bands; 2 indistinct brown bands from lower border of eye, 
1 from middle of border toward posterior end of maxillary, the other from posterior border to margin 
of opercle across bend of preopercle; spinous dorsal dark brown; base of soft dorsal dark brown; distal 
portion transparent, with few dark brown spots; base of anal dark brown; distal portion lighter with 
dark brown mottlings; ventrals uniformly dark brown or black; dark -brown area on proximal portion 
of pectoral, the remainder lighter with brown dots; caudal with dark brown across base, with 3 or 4 
narrow dark-brown bands across the rays, interspersed with white. 
This species is based on 2 specimens, 2 inches (the type) and 1.3 inches in length, taken by me in 
the coral rocks on the reef at Honolulu. 
Named for Prof. Vernon Lyman Kellogg, department of entomology, Leland Stanford Junior 
University.

40 in the lateral line, 6 in series from fourth dorsal to lateral line, 14 from origin of anal to lateral line; 
mouth but little oblique, low'er jaw projecting very slightly; maxillary 1.6 in head, projecting beyond 
posterior margin of eye; teeth all small and simple, in bands in upper and low r er jaws, bands inter-
