Checkerboard Fish.

The New York aquarium lately received in one lot from its collector at Gravesend Say 16 orange filefishes, an unusually large number to be taken in a single day, while among them there were some that were notable for their size and coloring. They included one big fish whose sides are marked from head to tall with evenly spaced brown and yellow spots, forming a pattern like a checkerboard.
