 Challenger at station 300, in the middle of the South Atlantic, in 1,375 fathoms ; and a single

 217; 111. Zool. Investigator, Fishes, PI. ix, fig. 3). This species, from the Bay of Bengal, is 

 represented by about sixty specimens taken by the Investigator at station 96 off the Madras 

 coast, at a depth of 98 to l02 fathoms. It is apjiareutly somewhat similar to M. remiger, 

 but has a longer anal fiu and a smaller eye.
