37. Uropterygius leucurus Snyder, new species. Plate 6, fig. 12. 
Head, measured to gill-opening, 0.12 of the length; tail 0.54; depth 0.38 of head; snout 0.2; cleft 
of mouth 0.36; lower jaw shorter than upper, tip extending to base of nostril tubes; teeth of jaws in 
two series, outer ones small and close-set, inner ones fang-like and widely spaced; a median, depressible 
fang in upper jaw; a single row of sharp teeth on vomer; anterior nostrils with tubes equal in length 
to diameter of eye; posterior nostrils without rims, located above eyes; eye located above middle of 
cleft of mouth; gill-opening a horizontal slit equal to diameter of eye. The dorsal fin becomes evident 
at a point about half the length of head from tip of tail, it being represented anteriorly by a mere fold 
of the skin which extends to occiput; caudal pointed; a mere trace of an anal which joins the caudal. 
Color brown, finely spotted above with white; ventrally the spots become elongate and unite, 
also increasing in size until on the belly the color is white with fine reticulations of brown; upper 
parts with figures formed by the union of elongate spots; end of snout, upper lip, lower jaw, and 
throat white; fin around end of tail white. 
This species resen d ties the young of U. marmoratus. It differs in color, that form being neither 
spotted nor otherwise figured with white. The jaws of U. marmoratus are equal, and no dorsal fin is 
evident on the tail. 
One specimen, 112 mm. long, was taken in 28 fathoms of water, station 3874, between Maui and
