Abstract

AbstractA summary is given of the previous memoirs, and an attempt has been made, upon the three characters of this investigation, to arrange the genera into families, which agree, with two exceptions (Mitsukurina and Dicerobatis), with preexisting families. Some deductions are drawn as to relationships and attention is drawn to Cestracion galeatus and Triakis as connecting links. Separate families are erected for Dicerobatis and Mitsukurina, and the latter is placed near to Notidanus. Resemblances are shown between Chlamydoselachus and the Holocephali. The Trygonidae, Torpedinidae, and Rhinobatidae are singularly uniform families. An index is added both general and specific.
