To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In most salangoids the entire dorsal and most of the lateral body surfaces are devoid of mela- nophores. Protosalanx chinensis and Neosalanx andersoni provide notable exceptions. Young of Protosalanx and. Neosalanx exhibit very few me- lanophores. Large and sexually ripe individuals of these two species, however, may have the dor- sal and lateral surfaces of the body with numer- ous melanophores. Those on the dorsal body sur- face are fine, exceedingly numerous, and generally scattered over the... entire musculature, but those on the sides are few and peculiarly restricted along the course of the myotomal septae. About a doz- en melanophores lie on each myotomal septa; the melanophores of successive septae are more or less parallel to each other; the cells are oblique- ly elongate, conforming to the thinness and obliquity of the septae and thus forming a series of widely spaced thin black slashes. This pattern, sometimes barely evident or absent in P. Chi- nensis, is very well developed in two gravid fe- males of 1 29-132 mm (USNM 1 20746).
