Odontognathus, dorsal view of head in a. 0. compressus and b. 0. mucronatus. anterior frontal fontanelle temporal foramen posterior frontal fontanelles supra-orbital canal (from specimens of 131-7 and 146-3 mm respectively). of stellate melanophores along each anal finray and the outer caudal rays, and a dark median line along back behind dorsal fin. Note. This species has a very restricted range, from Trinidad (Hildebrand, 1964 : 431) south to French Guiana. It was not recorded by Schultz (1949) off the northern coasts of Venezuela and it does not appear in the lists of Brazilian clupeoids by Fowler (1942) or Campos (1942). It appears to be marine or estuarine, but a single juvenile (batch a') was caught far up the Coppename 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 British Museum (Natural History).
