Rest of lower half of sides to flukes is light blue gray, marked only in the foremany places ; in scattered places with darker blue gray ; from a little behind awns on sides there are very few darker markings + these cease altogether just about 3 feet in front of end of finnowers - from the chin lips + throat to Vulva back on sides of peduncle there are some of exactly the same markings as were on the Finback.
