content: Ledger had "Scarus rhoduropterus" crossed out and was replaced by "Scarus sordidus" but the jar, which contained several lots identified all the lots as Scarus rhoduropterus.

content: A multilot jar was discovered and within it USNM 157006. Though the lot is said to contain 2 specimens only one was in the jar. There seems to be a descrepancy or a duplication of the Linen Tag number 5943 as this specimen which was discovered has that number attached to it. This would mean that remark #2 is possibly incorrect. As for note #1, this lot was labeled Chlorurus sordidus. At some point in time the specimens either got separated or an error was made. At this time it is unclear what occurred. The specimen found under C. sordidus is going to be recataloged under a different number at this time as that appears to be the best solution because the jar for USNM 157006 cannot be found.
