Not illustrated. 1902 edition. Excerpt: ... pectoral; pectoral and dorsals pale, with numerous small dark punctulations; caudal pale, yellowish at base, the margin blackish; anal and ventrals yellowish; side of head with 2 yellow blotches. Lisita Mugil hospes Jordan & Culver This little mullet is known only from the Pacific Coast of Mexico. It is not uncommon about Mazatlan. Red-eye Mullet; Liza Ojo de Perdriz Mugil gaimardianus Desmarest This species is found from Florida Keys to Cuba, but is not at all common. It reaches a length of about a foot. Mugil setosus is known only from the Revillagigedo Islands and Mazatlan, it being very abundant about Clarion Island. It closely resembles M. hospes, from which it differs widely, however, in its much larger multiserial setae, and the longer, narrower mouth. It is of no commercial value except locally. The fan-tailed mullet (M. irichodon) is found from Brazil The Dajaos northward to Key West where it is abundant. It attains a length of 10 inches and is of some little value as food. The genus Chcenomugil, distinguished by the absence of an adipose eyelid, has in our waters a single species, C. proboscideus, a little mullet, reaching 6 inches in length. It occurs on our Pacific Coast from Mazatlan to Panama. It is not abundant and is not of much food value. GENUS AGONOSTOMUS BENNETT The Dajaos This genus differs from Mugil chiefly in not having the stomach gizzard-like. Cleft of mouth extending laterally about to front of eye; teeth small, in villiform bands in each jaw, sometimes also on vomer; edge of lower lip rounded; anal spines usually 2, the first soft ray slender and often taken for a spine. Small, freshwater mullets found in mountain streams in tropical regions. The American species constitute the subgenus Dajaus, ...
