Several collections, made at various times by different individuals in the Lesser 
Antilles, were reported upon by Dr. Edward D. Cope (1870), and scattered through 
this paper, in footnotes, are descriptions of many species from different parts of 
the world. Two of them were collected about 1835 by Dr. John K. Townsend at 
the Sandwich Islands, and one, Tetrodon Jlorealis ( Spheroides florea/As) , was described 
as new. Cantherines sandvicensis also is recorded from this place. 
In the Proceedings of the Zoological Societ} r of London for 1871, page 663, 
Dr. Albert Gunther records Peristethus engyceras ( = Peristedlon engyceras) from 
the Hawaiian Islands. 
Gunther’s “Fische der Sudsee,” the most important of the earlier papers on the 
fish fauna of the Hawaiian Islands, was published in 1873-1881.“ Although never 
completed, it contains descriptions or mention of no fewer than 439 species of fishes, 
78 of which are credited to the Hawaiian Islands. In the following tabular state- 
ment are given the name and our identification of each species recorded in this 
work by Gunther from the Hawaiian Islands, with page and plate reference. New 
genera and new species are indicated by italics.
