Plates in lateral line 47. Head and body compressed, deeper than wide; head narrow above, the sides nearly vertical; supraocular rim much elevated, forming a narrow deep interocular groove; interorbital width in orbit; occiput flattened, without spines or ridges; snout blunt, the anterior profile steep; mouth small, slightly oblique, the maxillary reaching vertical from front of orbit; jaws equal; teeth bluntly conic, in wide bands on the jaws, the vomer and the anterior half of the palatines; preopercle with 4 short simple spines; upper spine with strongly striate base, strong, sharp, directed backward and upward, straight or with a scarcely perceptible upward curve; second spine shorter, directed vertically down- ward; third and fourth spines concealed beneath the integument, directed downward and fonvard; nasal spines strong. A pair of large supraocular flaps, with narrowly fringed margins, their length equaling the distance between the middle of their bases; a pair of cleft flaps at middle of sides of occiput, and a similar pair more widely separated at the posterior edge of occiput; a delicate nasal filament, two filaments at anterior margin of preorbital, one near tip of maxillar>% one on the suborbital stay, a divided filament near the angle of the opcrcle, a series along the edge of the preopercle, and a few scattered filaments on the plates of the lateral line; both nostrils in short Fig. I.—Arcfiaulus biseriatus, new spcdcs. Type. Anterior half of the lateral line forming a low flat-topped arch, which rises obliquely toward the head; plates along the lateral line 47, greatly diminishing in size posteriorly, but their upper edges free and finely spinous
