There is almost always a black bar across the eye, and often black ocelli adorn the fins. This genus is wanting in Europe. ChcBtodon capistratiis, striatus, and numerous other species are found in the West Indies; ChcBtodon hmneralis and nigrirostris are common on the coast of Mexico. The center of their distribution is in Polynesia and the East Indian Archi- pelago. ChcBtodon reticulatus, lineolatus, ulietensis, ornatis- simus, ephippion, setifer, and auriga are among the most showy species. Numerous closely related genera are described. In some of these the snout is prolonged into a long tube, bearing.
