Text Appearing Before Image:
Osfi'acio>i diaphanum Bloch & Schneider, a native of Japanese and East Indian waters. This is the first American record for the species and it is difficult to explain why such a small, slow- moving fish should wander so far from its known range. The body of the Cowfish is enclosed in a box-like carapace or outer shell from which the tail protrudes. The carapace is scaled with hexagonal bony plates which give it a mosaic appearance. It is a fish that lives near the bottom in shallow water. One of the specimens was taken alive near the kelp beds off Point Firmin, San Pedro. Others came from nearby points along the coast.
Text Appearing After Image:
PLATE 4. Cowfish (Ostracion diapJianum) % natural size. A NEW LYCAENID FROM SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA By John A. Comstock and Chris Henne During the fall of 1928 Comm. and Mrs. Dammers secured in Chino Canyon and Snow Creek, Riverside County, a series of Philotes that did not correspond with any of the known races of P. enoptcs, or P. hattoides. At the time it was thought to be a giant race of P. baitoides. Eggs were secured, and bred through to the pupal stage, the results of which will later be published in this Bulletin. 23
