Eastern Pacific. My examples differ from Gtinther’s figure as he 
shows the pectorals reaching nearly to anal, dorsal and ventral extend- 
-v. 
ing will beyond the anal and the interdorsal space small or 3 2/3 in 
head. In my large specimen though the low second dorsal begins behind 
the anal, the depressed dorsal fin reaches 1 2/5 to it or not quite 
opposite anal origin and the ventral reaches only 1 2/5 to the anal. 
Its caudal also 3 in head.
