MEMO IBS OF THE QUEENSLAND MUSEUM . 
The type of Glyphidodon pallidus has now faded to a uniform straw yellow 
colour with the vent brown. Be Vis gave its colours as — “ Pale yellowish blue ; a 
blue line from base of dorsal to muzzle on each side. Two curved lines beneath 
the eye ; small oval spots or short streaks above lateral line, and extending upon 
the webs of the dorsal ; streaks on a few scales below the lateral line.” 
Described and figured from the holotype of Glyphidodon pallidus De Vis, 
a specimen 43 mm. in length to hypural joint. (Qld. Mus. Regd. No. 1.13/1353.) 
Text-fig. 4. — Dischistodus frenatus (De Vis). Holotype of Pomacentrus frenatus De Vis from 
Cardwell, Queensland.

Locality . — Banks Group, collected by C. F. Browne. This is probably the 
Banks Group between the New Hebrides and the Santa Cruz Islands and not Banks 
Island in Torres Strait, Queensland. Jordan & Seale (loc. cit.) give New Guinea as the 
locality for this species. 
Affinities. — Glyphidodon pallidus De Vis is regarded by Fowler & Bean 51 as 
a synonym of Abudefduf fjlaucus (C. & V.) with Glyphisodon modest us Bleeker and 
G. phaiosoma Bleeker as further synonyms. T am not entirely convinced that this is 
correct and consequently use De Vis’ name for the present species, lredaleichthys 
pallidus is very closely allied to Glyphisodon glaucus 0. &. V., G. cyaneus Quoy & 
Gaimard, and Abudefduf bleekeri Fowler & Bean. Other species which apparently 
must be grouped with Glyphidodon pallidus in the genus lredaleichthys are 
Glyphidodon modestus Sc h lege 1 & Muller, G. nniocellatus Quoy & Gaimard, G. Jmlleyi 
Whitley, Abudefduf sapphirus Jordan & Richardson, A. turchesius Jordan & Seale, 
and A. hemicyaneus Weber.
