MEMOIRS OF THE QUEENSLAND MUSEUM. 
Note. — In a letter just received by Dr. Hamlyn-Harris Prof. T. D. A. Cockerell, 
of the University of Colorado, suggests the advisability of separating Leptobrama 
as a subfamily from the other Pempheridce. This conclusion was arrived at from 
an examination of the scales of Liopempheris muitiradiatus and Leptobrama miilleri. 
This unexpected confirmation of my previous action is highly gratifying. (See 
Cockerell, p 55.)
