Habitat. — West Indian fauna ; Brazil to Florida Keys. 
Etymology. — Cruentatm, dyed with blood. 
As this species is in no wise concerned in forming the Perea guttata of Linnmus, 
we no longer retain for it the specific name of guttatus. The specific name next in 
date is the cruentatus of Lacepede. This appropriate name seems to be subject to no 
doubt, and must be adopted.
