In addition 9 paratypes ( No. 116088), to 49 mm., were taken by L. P. Schiiltz on the reef of Tau Island at Siulagi Point. Description.—(Based on the holotype and paratypes listed above. Detailed measurements were made on the holotype and two para- types and are expressed in hundredths of the standard length, (67; ) mm.; those for the holotype outside the parenthesis and for the paratypes within the parentheses, respectively.)

Dorsal 41 (43; 40; 42; 43; 41; 40; 41; 40) ; anal 39 (39; 37; 39; 39; 39; 38; 38; 37) ; pectoral 13 (12; 13; 12; 13; 13; 12; 12; 12) ; pelvic rays always I, 5; pores in lateral line 59 (59; 59; 57; 60; 56; 58). The origin of the dorsal fin is a little in front of the anal so that the origin of the anal is under the third to fifth dorsal ray; the pelvics are inserted in front of the bases of the pectoral fins; the operculum extends backward, covering the base of the pectoral fin; the ventral part of the opercular covering (subopercle and inter- oper
