One specimen taken between Albemarle and Narboro islands near 

 Tagus Cove, Albemarle. It was secured by Captaiij^ W. P. Noyes,

 porpoises past the boat in which he was rowing and that this one 

 leaped into the boat.

We have also 8 young individuals of a Hemlrhaiuph7is^ about 70 

 mm. long, seined in the surf on the beach north of Tagus Cove, 

 Albemarle, which apparently belong to this species. They are 

 marked by a black lateral band from base of pectoral to middle of

 3 segments by the longitudinal dorsal lines; lower jaw about 4.5 in 

 the total length.
