DR. GÜNTHER ON THE FISHES OF CENTRAL AMERICA. 481
finely granular; a series of very small, distant, smooth, oblong tubercles along the
median line of the back. Nostrils longer than the space between their posterior
extremities, but shorter than the mouth. Upjier parts uniform ashy brown, the prœ
ocular part of the snout yellowish white.
One male, 21 inches long, was obtained by Capt. Dow on the Pacific coast of Panama.
299. Urolophus mundus.
Urtrygon mundus, Gill, Proc. Ac. Nat. Sc. Philad. 1863, p. 173.
Mr. Gill proposes the generic name of Urotrygon for U. Torpedinus and the present
species, the new genus being distinguished by the rounded and not angular outline, the
longer tail and posterior insertion of the spine, and especially the acute teeth. The
new species is thus characterized:—
The disk is orbicular, with a slight linguiform projection in front, and with the
pectoral fins behind broadly rounded. The distance of the snout from the hinder
margin of the pectorals equals the the width of the disk.
