The length of the head is a little more than that of the trunk and a little less than one- 

 fifth of the total. Eyes large, two-sevenths of the length of the head, and longer than the 

 snout, which is broad, with the upper Jaw overlapping the lower; teeth in bands of moderate 

 width, subequal in size; a small patch of teeth on the vomer, and a few teeth anteriorly on 

 the palatine bones. More or less shallow grooves along the infraorbital and the mandible. 

 rTill-opening of moderate width. The dorsal commences above the posterior portion of the 

 pectoral; length of the pectoral one half of that of the head; each ventral reduced to a short 

 simple filament. Yellowish, with nine broad, dark brown bands across the upper half of the 

 fish, separated from one another by very narrow interspaces of the ground color. The cross 

 bars are lighter in the center, subocellated, and extend on to tin; dorsal fin. A brown band 

 runs from the snout through tlie eye to the end of the operculum: throat and abdomen 

 blackish {Oihithcr). 



A single specimen, 5 inches long, was taken by the GhaUeiuier At station 309, Straits of

Lyi-enchehjs albus (Vaillant), Goode and Beau [Lycodes alhiis, Vaillant, Kxp. Sci. Trav.

 allied to Lycodes miirwiiti, hut it appears to be somewhat thicker, and is, furtheiniorc, found 

 at a much greater depth and much farther to the southward. The description of Vaillant 

 is as follows:
