I. 19c 21a. im. 206. Caudal spot elongate in adults, elliptical to rectangular, hori- zontal diameter about 2 times vertical diameter, very long in young, appearing as a widening of median stripe; caudal spot dusky tan, not sharply outlined, diffuse in adults, gen- erally indistinct in young; base of pectoral fin and opercular edge adjacent to pectoral base usually brown to blackish brown, somewhat heavier colored than ventrolateral stripe. Apog'on robustus (Smith and Radcliffe) Dusky to dark brown dorsolateral and ventrolateral stripes con- verging upon spot at base of caudal; only median stripe passing on to caudal rays to form streak; median stripe not with en- larged blotches; dark spot at base of caudal fin present; total number of gill rakers 20 to 24; postocular stripe absent. Width of median dark stripe on body below end of base of spiny dorsal fin not more than twice as wide as light stripes above and below it, usually only slightly wider, sometimes narrower; width of light stripes near middle of body, above and below median dark stripe, less than 3 in eye, averages about 2, and equals diameter of pupil; total number of gill rakers averages about 23 Apogon nigrofasciatus, new species Width of median dark stripe more than twice as wide as light stripes above and below it, usually more than 3 times; width of light stripes near the middle of the body above and below median dark stripe more than 4 in eye, averages about , and about 2 in pupil, total number of gill rakers averages about 21 (see pi. 38, A). Apogon aroubiensis ** Hombron and Jacquinot Blackish dorsolateral and ventrolateral stripes become faint on caudal peduncle, do not extend to caudal fin; median stripe becomes narrower on caudal peduncle, appears to fade out 216.
