Figure 47.—Holotype of Hypoatherina harnesi, new species ( No. 140470), from Rongelap Atoll. (Drawing by Aime M. Awl.) bone; vomer with one or two very minute teeth; palatines toothless; air bladder ending bluntly in front of anal fin origin; bony edge of preopercle with concavity near lower posterior corner; gill rakers on first arch, long, slender, about equal to diameter of pupil; mouth mod- erately oblique, maxillary reaching to a vertical line through front of orbit; posterior margins of scales smooth, not crenulate; anus behind tips of pelvic fins, under base of spiny dorsal fin; anal fin origin under third or fourth median dorsal scale in front of second dorsal fin; ascending median premaxillary process moderately long but not reaching to interorbital space.
