FAMILY SERRANIDAE — SCHULTZ 363 Genus PLECTROPOMUS Oken Plectropomus Oken, Isis, p. 1182] 1782 (on "Les Plectropomes" Cuvier, Regne animal, vol. 2, p. 277, 1817). (Genotype, Bodianus maculatus Bloch) (Ref. copied) Apparently two species in this genus were taken in the northern Marshall Islands, but only one species reached the United States National Museum. Specimens of the other one were discarded or lost when the small ship went aground in Halfmoon Bay, Calif, (see p. xxi). PLECTROPOMUS TRUNCATUS Fowler Plate 29, A Plectropomus truncatvs Fowlek, U. S.

Description. — Dorsal rays VIII11; anal 111,8, pectoral Ii14 or Ii15; probably about 100 vertical scale rows above lateral line, but there are so many accessory small scales that an accurate count on these large specimens is very uncertain.

Fins brown like body, only spots much smaller. Hind caudal edge narrowly whitish. Pectoral pale brownish and only few small spots basally. Ventral darker than pectoral. East Indies and Philippines. Diagnosis. — Apparently a valid species which we distinguish chiefly by its truncate caudal fin. The lower preopercular spines are relatively weak and the opercular spines more or less imbedded, often inconspicuous. The head, body, and fins are ornamented with large blue, black-edged spots.
