6. MYOXOCEPHALUS GRCENLANDICUS (Cuvier and Valenciennes). 

 GREENLAND SCUXPIN. 



One specimen 9£ inches long from 10 miles north of Nain, Labrador, 

 August 20. The supraorbital and occipital spines have a short cirrus 

 on the apex of each. 



7. GYMNOCANTHUS TRICUSPIS (Reinhardt). 



One specimen 7f inches long from 10 miles northeast of Nain, 

 August 20. 



8. CYCLOPTERUS LUMPUS Linnaeus. 

 LUMPFISH. 



One specimen, young, 14 mm. long from vSt. Pierre, October 1; 5 

 fathoms; rocks and gravel. 



9. LIPARIS TRUNCATUS Reinhardt. 



Three specimens 40, 43, and 70 mm. long, respectively, from 

 Komactorvic Bay, north of Nakvak, Labrador, in 5 fathoms; rocky 

 bottom; August 28. 



10. LYCODES VAHLII Reinhardt. 



One specimen presumably of the young of this species was taken 

 " Half-way from Cape Mugford to Hebron in 60 fathoms; mud and 

 sand bottom, August 23." Total length, 79 nun.; head in that 

 length, 4.64; depth, 8.77; pectoral, 8.77?; 'eye, 4.25 in head; snout, 

 3.40; no scale evident. 



11. LYCODES RETICULATUS Reinhardt. 



One young specimen which seems to be of this species was taken 

 from o(T Cape Harrison in 70 fathoms; "no bottom brought up;" 

 August 13. Total length 65 mm. ; head in that length 4.33; depth, 

 7.22; pectoral, 9.5; eye, 4.5 in head; snout, 4.5. 



The coloration of this and the preceding specimen is very much 

 the same, as appears to be the case with the young of most of the 

 Lycodes, which makes them difficult of identification. 



This specimen seems to be identical with the form called Lycodes 

 perspicillum by Krover. 



The writer has followed Smitt in Scandinavian fishes in consider- 

 ing it the young of L. reticulatus. 



12. BOREOGADUS SAIDA (Lepechin). 



One specimen doubtfully the young of this species, 18 mm. long, 

 from 30 miles southeast of Nain, August 15.
