2ebi‘a Sole, anJ of which indeed it might be mistaken for a variety 
Ae first view. The resemblance, however, merely consists in 
Ais fasciated appearance ; on examination it will be found that 
Ae Zebra Sole the dorsal and anal fins are united by a common 
^^nabrane at the posterior extremity to the tail, while in our fish 
is perfectly detached. — The Linguatula of Bellonious and Wil- 
ioughby bears some resemblance likewise to our fish, so far as the 
Accounts afforded of that ambiguous species assist opinion ; but the 
^'^outh of Linguatula is said to be very wide, which is not the case 
'vith the fish before us. — ^These are the only species of Pleuronectes 
^escribed by authors that seem to accord with our present species, 
^nd which we therefore presume must be considered as a non- 
descript. 
The specimen is represented nearly in its natural size, the length 
^eing nine Inches. Its upper surface, as appears in the figure, is 
P^le, clouded with fuscous, the lower white. The dorsal fin contains 
*ixty.eight rays : anal fifty-three : and the tail sixteen.
