RARE FISH OCCURRENCES 83 to port. It turned out to be a record-sized Priacanthus cruentatus, which at 397 mm SL and 2725 g (6.0 lb) was so much larger than the previous known record size, i.e., "about a foot" (Gosline and Brock 1960:160), that it should be record- ed for posterity. Mr. Baker's fish, a spent female, had a number of pelagic red crabs, Pleumncodesplanipes, in its stomach. Mr. Baker was fishing from the boat Cape Polaris in 33 m (18 fm) of water; he was using a piece of cut mackerel for bait.

The 455 mm individual, a spawned out female (360 mm SL) was taken there in October 1970, and had the remains of one each Vinciguerria lucetia and Gonichthys tenuiculum in its stomach. Judged by growth zones on their otoliths, these Alijos Rocks "giants" are rapidly-growing fish: there were either'eight or nine hyaline (winter) zones on the sagittae of the 507 mm specimen, and five on the 455 mm one. P. cruentatus is found on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean and in the eastern,
