Under Navn af Blennius polaris beskrives en Fisk. der i Aaret 

 1819 fandtes opkastet paa Strandbredden i Arctisk America (North

 længden var 7 eng. Tommer lomtr. 180"""), og med de for adskillige 

 af denne Slægts Arter characteristiske Tverbaand over Legemet. 

 Beskrivelsen er iovrigt saa ufuldstændig, at Arten maa siges at være 

 ganske ubestemmelig, og den er aldrig senere med Sikkerhed gjen- 

 funden. ila, L. polaris, | S:i 1 >.-] ).

The name of Blennius polaris was given to a fish found stranded 

 in the year 1sl9 on the coast of Arctic America (North Georgia), 

 aud which would seem to have been a species of the subsequently 

 established genus Lycodes, a salient feature being the naked body, 

 although the total length of the specimen reached 7 English in (about 

 ISO»»»»); it was marked, too, with the transverse bands across the body 

 distinguishing several species of that genus. The description, however, 

 is far too incomplete to admit of characterising the species, and it 

 is not known to have been subsequently met with.

An individual, referred by Ross to Sabine's Blennius polaris, 

 was taken on Parry's North Pole Expedition, in June ls-_!7, at a 

 depth of so fathoms, north of Spitsbergen, lat. sl" 6' N. This spec- 

 imen is unquestionably a Lycodes, but would seem to differ from Sa- 

 bine's species in the number of fin-rays and in the colour: Malmgren 

 regards it as identical with his L. rossi, also from Spitsbergen, des- 

 cribed 1SC4. (111. L. polaris, [J. ( '. Ross]].

The genus Lycodes is introduced, and ils characters enumerated 

 somewhat at length; as the type. Reinhardt gives L. vahlii, determined 

 from a single specimen from Greenland, total length about 300""", 

 taken from the ventricle of a Somniosus microcephalus. Extracts from 

 this paper will be found in Oken's "Isis" for 1848, p. 124 — 125.

The author furnishes a detailed diagnosis of the genus, and of 

 the species L. vahlii and L. reticulatus, the latter established from 2 

 large individuals obtained on the coast of Greenland, in the years 

 1833 and 1S3J: these specimens, I,",, were taken from the ventricle 

 of a <*?. microcephalus. Extracts from this paper will be found in Oken's 

 "Isis" for 1S4S: |». 134 — 135. (3. /.. reticulatus, Reinh.).

An individual, believed to have been Sabine's Blennius polaris, 

 «as taken from the ventricle of a Guilus. at Boothia. Arctic America. 

 Being greatly mutilated its determination is doubtful.

 — 124, 147—174, and 223—228. Kbhvn. 1838). 



A full description is furnished of L vahlii (PL .",) and of 'i. 

 reticulatus PI. 6); also of a newly established species L. seminudus, of 

 which a specimen — total length about 480?"" — had been obtained, 

 in 1S37. on the coast of Greenland. Extracts from this treatise will 

 be found in Oken's "Isis" 1848, p. 279 — 290. i4. L. seminudus, Reinh.).

A brief and preliminary diagnosis is furnished of 2 new species, 

 L. perspicillum and L. nebulosus. both established from 2 examples 

 taken on the coast of Greenland. The typical specimen of the latter 

 species would appear to have been lost, and on account of the in- 

 complete description will hardly admit of being identified; the former 

 — from reasons to lie subsequently advanced — is perhaps a young 

 example of L. reticulatus. (5. L. perspicilhim, Kr. 'i. /.. nebulosus, -Kr.),
