The species are few, small,and confined to the Indian and Australian seas. Another smallfamily closely related to this is the group of Hemeroccetidm ofthe same region. The Dactyloscopidae. —In this and the preceding families ofjugular fishes the ventral rays remain i, 5, as in the typicalthoracic forms. In most of the families yet to be describedthe nimiber is I, 3, a character which separates the little fishes ofthe family of Dactyloscopidm from the Uranoscoptdce and Lepto-scopida. DactyloscopHs tridigitatns is a small fish of the coralsands of Cuba. The other species of this family are foundmostly in the West Indies and on the west coast of genera, Myxodagniis, Gillellus, Dactylagnus, etc., arerecognized. In the structure of the shoulder-girdle thesespecies diverge from the star-gazers, approaching the blennies,and their position is i
