Twenty-four speciments collected from the beach at Lord Howe Island were used for the comparison (AMS IA. 1398-1404, , , , , , , , , ; mm in standard length and QM 11/74 mm in standard length). The methods of measurement follow Hubbs and Lagler (1949). The drawings were made with the aid of a binocular microscope and vertebral counts from X-rays. DESCRIPTION OF THE JUVENILE Counts, measurements and description of the juvenile specimen (1) are followed by those of the Lord Howe Island specimens (24) in parentheses. Dorsal fin rays XX, I, 18+2 (XIX-XXI, I, 16-19+2); anal rays II, 16+2 (II, 15-19+2); pectoral rays 14 (12-14); pelvic rays 1,1(1,1); gill-rakers on first arch 5+1 + 11 (5-8+1 + 10-17); branchiostegals 7 (7); intramuscular bones — (31-34); vertebrae including urostyle 37 (20+17=37 or 21 + 16=37); pyloric caeca — (8). The following measurements are expressed as percent standard length: head length (); snout to insertion of first dorsal (); snout to insertion of second dorsal (); snout to insertion of pectoral (); snout to insertion of pelvic (); snout to anus (); snout to insertion of anal (). The following measurements are expressed as percent of head length: body depth (); body width (); snout length (); upper jaw length (); orbit length (); interorbital width (); pectoral fin length
