Bolin (1939) lists but one record of this species from the Pacific Coast and that from the Gulf of California. The specimens discussed here will be deposited in the Stanford University collection. Albula vulpes (Linnaeus). Bonefish. A 12-inch bonefish was hooked and landed by Mr. William Graham on October 9, 1949. He was fishing in the upper bay at Newport Harbor and using clam for bait. These fish seldom wander as far north as this and are particularly unusual during the fall and winter months. Lactoria diaphana (Bloch and Schneider). Boxfish. Mr. George A. hieane snagged a small boxfish while fishing in the surf at Corona Del Mai- on November 8, 1949. These fishes are distributed in tropical seas throughout the world but have only been recorded from California by two authors (Hill. 19:52; Bolin. 1933). During November and December. 1!)32, at least 10 of these fish up to seven inches in length were collected between Santa Barbara and San Juan Capistrano, a little over 115 miles of coastline. The present specimen has been sent to Scripps Institution of Oceanography, La Jolla. Verrunculus polylepis (Steindachner). Triggerfish. (Figure 53.) A 15-inch triggerfish was taken on -January 5, 1950, in a drag net in 120 fathoms of water about eight miles east of Anacapa Island by the boat Jubilee, skipper Mark Mullenary.
