SQUALIM. 



Squalus acanthias Linnaeus. Spiny Dog Shark. 



Atlantic, Cape May, Monmouth (Asbury Park and Seabright) and 

 Ocean Counties. Not seen by me from Delaware Bay, though the Acad- 

 emy received an example from there in 1855. 



SQUATINID^E. 

 Squatina dumeril Le Sueur. Angel Shark. 

 Atlantic and Cape May Counties. 



PRISTID^E. 



Pristis pectinatus Latham. Saw Fish. 



Cape May County. A saw received in the Academy in 1846 from "off 

 Cape Island" I have not located. Possibly it is one of the many saws in 

 the collection without data. 



The only New York record is by Schoepf, 1 for an example taken in 

 July, 1782. This is later mentioned as Pristis antiqiwrum by De Kay, 

 Gebhard, and apparently by Hall, 2 who refers it to New York Bay.
