Vomerine and palatine teeth in broad bands, none of them specialized. 7U1 the teeth show a tendency to form one or two minute cusps midway of the length, but these are never well developed. Pores in head numerous, small, arranged as in B. signatus. Anterior nostril in a short tube; the posterior a short slit above front of eye. Gill-rakers very short, 5 above angle and 12 below on outer arch, the longest when depressed covering little more than one """^ Fig. 29.—Bathymaster ccErulcofascialus, new species, Tj^pe. Scales strongly ctenoid, much rougher than in B. signalus, covering the entire body with the exception of a narrow streak on median line of nape; series of smaller scales accompany basal portions of dorsal, caudal, and pectoral rays, those on caudal extending b
