The genus Helioperca, recently proposed by me for this species and its immediate relatives, does not seem sufiiciently dis- tiuct from Lepiopomus.

His specific name should therefore be adopted. This change is especially desirable, as it does away with the objection- able local name Jioridanus for this widely distributed species. ; rr^: ^ .
