Note. — In my article on Polynemus specularis de Vis* I wrote re Polynemus 
multiradiatus Gunther — £< I do not know what Klunzinger’s fish of the same name 
may be.” I am quite satisfied now that this sentence was penned through my 
mentally confusing Gunther’s species with Pempheris multiradiata Klunzinger. 
Part II.— THE GADOPSEIFORM PERCOIDS. 
(Plate XX.) 
In Mr. Tate Regan’s masterly paper on the “ Classification of the Percoid 
Fishes, ”t he diagnoses the gadopseiform pereoids as follows: — 
Division GADOPSEIFORMES. 
“ Gadopsis scarcely differs from the Perciformes in osteology, but there is 
no mesopterygoid and there are 2 radials on the hypercoracoid and 2 on the 
hypoeoracoid. The pelvic fins are jugular, each reduced to a small spine and a 
bifid ray. Against Blennioid relationships are the intervention of the prootic 
between the parasphenoidand the alisphenoid, the 3 anal spines, the dorsal and anal 
rays more numerous than the corresponding myotomes. Vertebrae 21 + 26 ; ribs, 
except the first 2 or 3, on strong parapophyses. ” 
The position here allotted to Gadopsis is much more satisfactory than that 
assigned to it by previous authors.
