Frequently taken in abundance. We have compared our specimens with the original description (Jordan & Gilbert, 1882, 0, p. 646) and with specimens of C. chrysia'us. The depth is very variable; in our most slender specimens the depth is 2% in the length, while in the deepest specimen (of the same length) it is 2J. Between these extremes are all intermediate shapes. 151. Trachinotus rhodopus Gill. Not abundant; eight specimens preserved, from l-') to 3G cm. in length. We have compared them with a single specimen of 7\ glaucus from Key West. In addition to the less vertical snout noted by Dr. Gill, they diflcr in having much longer, slenderer, and more numerous gill-rakers. The scales appear to be smaller, and the dorsal and anal are probably slightly longer. The dorsal formula in seven sjiecimens is VI, I, 20, in one specimen VI, I, 19; the anal in three specimens III, 19, in five specimens III, 18. The gill-rakers are long and slender, and do not greatly taper in size from their base to their Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Hopkins Seaside Laboratory.
