Abstract

A sample of 49 specimens of tongue soles (Cynoglossus spp.) was collected
on 14th February 1968 from the Moplah Bay, Cannanore*. The
sample was interesting in that as many as four species were represented in it,
including also the common Malabar Sole, C. semifasciatus Day. The present
note deals with the biological findings on this material (examined after preservation
in formalin) together with certain morphological and ichthyolc^ical data
on the species other than C. semifasciatus. A description of C. lida (Bleeker)
is also included as the species has not so far been described from this coast.
The present author (Seshappa 1970) has made a morphometric study of C. lida
in comparison with four other species from the west coast.
