Fourteen dorsalspines are occasionally present in Sebastichthys elegans. Allthe other species show constantly 13. The genus Sehastiscus has the general appearance of Sebas-iodes, and like the latter possesses a large air-bladder. It how-ever agrees with Scorpana in the possession of but 12 dorsalspines and 24 vertebrae. The two known species are commonin Japan. Sebastiscus mannorattis, mottled browTi, is everywhere.

Straits of Fuca. abundant along the coast, and the pretty Sebastiscus albofasciatns,pink, violet, and golden, represents it in equal abundance indeeper water. The genus Sebastopsis differs from Sebastodes only in havingno teeth on the palatines. The species, all of small size andred or varied coloration, are confined to the Pacific. Sebastop-sis xyris occurs in Lower California and Sebastopsis guaniensisand 5. scaber in Polynesia. Species of this genus are oftenfound dried in Chinese insect boxes. Helicolenus differs from Sebastiscus only in the total absenceof air-bladder. The species are all bright crimson in color, veryhandsome, and live in deep water. Helicolenus dactylopterus israther common in the Mediterranean, and is sometimes takenin the Gulf Stream, and also in Japan, where two or three otherspecies occur. 644 Pareioplitir, or Mailed-cheek Fishes Neosehastes is much like Sebastodes, but the suborbital
