508 DEEP-SEA FISHES OF THE ATLANTIC BASIN. 



The Squalus uyatus of Raflnesque was described from Sicily, where the fishermen of 

 Palermo call it the Uyatu; Centrophorus uyatus should then be the name of this species. 



A specimen was taken by Vinciguerra in the Gulf of Genoa, July, 1879, at a depth of 

 GOO meters (Crociere delle Violante, 1883, 18). 



Centrophorus foliaceus, Giiuther (Challenger Report, xxn, 5, PI. n, fig. a) was from 

 station 1*32, off Inosima, Japan, at a depth of 245 fathoms. 



G. squamulosus, Gunther [loc. tit., PI. n, fig. b) was from the same locality as the 

 preceding. 



Page 14: ( 'entroscymnus ecelolepis. A female containing five ftetuses was taken at Nice 

 in 1883 by the < lal Brothers, and is now in the museum at Florence (Bellotti, Appunti all' 

 Opera del Dottor Finilio Moreaa, Milan, L891, 113; Moreau, Hist. Nat. Poiss., France, 

 Suppl. 0). Another was taken a few days before. 



These captures show that this shark is an inhabitant of the Mediterranean. It will 

 probably be found abundant in 200 to 000 fathoms, especially in the western part of this sea.

Scylliorhinus retifer, Jordan and Gilbert, Bull, xvi, U. S. Nat. Mas., 869. 



Scylliorhinus hispidus | Alcock) [Aun. and Mag. Nat. Hist., August, 1891, 21] was obtained 

 by the Investigator in the Andaman Sea, station 1 15, 188 to 222 fathoms. 



Scylliorhinus canescens (Giinther) [Challenger Report, xxn, PI. i, tig. a] was obtained 

 by the Challenger at station 310, off the southwest coast of South America in 400 fathoms. 



Scylliorhinus hispidus (Scyllium hispidum) Alcock, 111. Zool. Investigator, Fishes, PI. 

 VIII, fig. 3. 



Page L8: Pseudotrimis microdnn. This species was first made known by Capello from 

 a single specimen obtained at Setubal in 1867. None have since been recorded from 

 Portugal (Peixesde Portugal, L880, 41). 



Page 20: Pristiurus melanostomus. Vinciguerra obtained sixty-six specimens, nearly 

 all females, in the Gulf of Genoa, duly 26, 1879, at a depth of about GOO meters (Crociere 

 delle Violante, 18). The Rev. W. Spottswood Green obtained a young specimen at a depth 

 of 150 fathoms off the southwest coast of Ireland in July, 1889 (Gunther, Ann. and Mag. 

 Nat, Hist.. Dec, 1889, 415). 



Page 24: Chlamydoselachus anguineus. Collett has recently announced the very sur- 

 prising fact of the occurrence of this form at Madeira, where the Prince of Monaco obtained 

 a young female, G10 millimeters long, in March, 1889, thus bringing this strange family and 

 genus into the Atlantic (Collett, Bull. Soc. Zool. France, 1890, 219). 



Raia isotrachys (Challenger Report, xxn. 7, PI. in) was from Challenger station 235, 

 south of Japan, in 365 fathoms. 



Page 25: Raia lintea, Fries. Collett reports that several individuals were taken at 

 Jaederen's Rev, at about 100 fathoms depth, and that its northern limit is about N. lat. 59° 

 (Christ, Vid. Selsk. Forh., 18S2, No. 29, 4). 



Raia mamillidens, Alcock (Ann. and Mag. Nat. Hist., November. 1889, 380; 111. Zool. 

 Investigator, Fishes, PI. vni, fig. 1). was taken by the Investigator in the Gulf of Manaar, 

 N. lat. 6° 29', F. Ion. 79° 34', at a depth of 597 fall is. 



Ruin radiata. Collett reports this species along the entire length of the Norwegian 

 coast to the Russian boundary, and that it is numerous in the fiords of Finmark. Its 

 northern limit is the northwest coast of Spitzbergen, N. lat. 80°. The greatest depth at 

 which it has been found is !.",() fathoms (Collett, Christ. Vid. Selsk. Forh., 1882, No. 29, 3). 



Page 27: Raia circularis. Collett reports that this species is found on the coast of 

 Norway at depths of 100 to 30(1 fathoms, and that its northern limit is about N. lat. 59° 

 (Christ, Vid. Selsk. Forh., 1882, No. 29, 4). 



Rain senta, Garman, (I'roc. U. S. Nat. Mus., vni, 1885, p. 43), was taken on Le Have 

 Banks, and is doubtless hemibathybial in its distribution. 



Raia aleutica, Gilbert and Thoburn (Bull. U. S. Fish Com., 1894). was taken in 81 

 fathoms, south of Uualaska, and is also doubtless hemibathybial.
