Title Comments on the so-called rare marine fishes of the
genera Dactyloptena Jordan and Richardson and
Lepidotrigla Gunther recently reported from Madras

Description Three fishes viz., Brotula jerdoni Day, Lepidotrigla spiloptera Gunther and
Dactyloptena orientalis (Cuvier) have been recently reported upon as rare and
interesting based on the material collected from Madras by the Zoological Survey
of India (Menon and Rao, 1963). Of these B. jerdoni has only a limited distributional
record and is stated to be under further study and as such does not call
for any comments. With regard to the other two species a number of references
published subsequent to those cited by them in their paper have come to my notice
and a few of the relevent ones are given here with some comments on the species
for the benefit of those interested.
