Boulenger, Ann. Nat. Hist. (7) x, p. 147, discusses the characters of the 
Lamprididce, and proposes to associate them with the Hemibranchii 
and Lophobrcinchii in a suborder, under the above name. This sub¬ 
order is formed of four Divisions :— 
i. Selenichthyes. Lamprididce. 
ii. Hemibranchii. Gastrosteidce , Aulorhynchidce, Protosyngnathidce , 
Aulostomatidce , Fistulariidce , Centriscidce , Amphisilidce. 
ill. Lophobranchii. Solenostomidce, Syngnathidce. 
iv. Hypostomides. Pegasidce. 
The new family Protosyngnathidce is proposed, p. 151, for the Tertiary 
genus Protosyngnathus. 
0. P. Hay, Bull. U. S. Geol. Surv. No. 179, p. 396, proposes the new 
name Phthinobranchii for an Order to embrace the Hemibranchii and 
the Lophobranchii : Swinnerton, Quart. J. Micr. Sci. xlv, p. 580, 
proposes that of Thoracostei for the same assemblage. 
E. C. Starks, P. U. S. Mus. xxv, pp. 619-634, figg., writes on the osteo¬ 
logy and systematic position of the Hemibranchii.
