Referred Specimens in Nolf (1985:78) : No specific specimens. He cites Fitch (1968) that otoliths of I. fim- 
briatus have been found in the California Pliocene. 
Remarks : Because Fitch (1968) did not give any specific fossil locality containing otoliths of I. fimbriatus, its 
presence in the Neogene of California is questionable.
