The above are very rough diagramatic, sketches 
of two fishes which were observed; the top) indi- 
vidual was most peculiar because of the location 
^ ^ of the dorsal and ana! exactly opposite of each 
i -» other and-one being the duplicate of the other; 
the relative length of the two fins is not 
exagerated in this sketch although the tail is 
probably longer than indicated. The total-length 
of the fish was. no greater than 6-8 inches, and 
he lived in a hole about 4 inches in entrance dia 
-15 meter in a sandy area. When alarmed by the slight- 
•i v est movement, he would' instantly dive for ties hole, 
' onjy to r eturn whenever the' disturbance was re¬ 
moved . 
The second sketch represents a Parapercid which 
is possibly a deep water relative of the common 
species so often taken in the shallow reef areas. 
It was noticeable because of the large brown ocelli 
on the top of the head and behind the eyes-as in¬ 
dicated.
