A new .si>ecies, rc])reseutecl by a single male specimen, 10 inches long, obtained by the 

 Invextigator at station 133, in the Bay of Bengal, at a depth of G78 fathoms. Alcock snggests 

 that it is possible that this specimen may be the male of L. nhjef, described from three 

 female specimens ]>reviously studied, although data are not siitlicient to determine the fact. 



Lamprogrammus nigcr, Alcock. A good tigure is given in "Illustrations of the Zoology 

 of H. M. S. Investigator,^^ Part i, PI. i, lig. 1, Calcutta, 1802. 



Page 345; Ophidium murainolepis, (Jiinther (Challenger Eeport, vi, 4(i, PI. xx. Fig. A; 

 XXII, 208). Specimens were obtained by the Challenger ofl' the Ki Islands, at station 102, 

 iu 120 or 140 fathoms. 



Leptophldinm. Four species of this genus were described by Gilbert from the Alhatross 

 explorations on the coast of southern California, as follows: 



L. pardale, Gilbert (Proc. U. S. N. M., xiii, 1800, 108). A single specimen, station 3014, 

 in 20 fathoms. 



L. microUpis, Gilbert (loc. vit., 100). Several specimens from Albatro-sn stations 3015 

 and 3016, iu 145 and 76 fathoms. 



L. stigmatistinin, Gilbert {lov. cit., 100). A single specimen from Albatross station 

 2996, iu 112 fathoms. 



L. emmelas, Gilbert (loc. cit., 110). Many specimens from Albatross stations 3007 and 

 3008, in 362 and 306 fathoms.

 Zoology of H. M. S. Investigator," Part i, PI. ii, tig. 2, Calcutta, 1892.

 Jouru. Zool., XX, 446). 



Melanogrammus milcfinns is fouud at 00 fathoms in the same region. 



Page 355: Qadiculus argcntcus. Note the extended discussions by Bellotti iu the Atti 

 Soc. Ital. Sci. Nat., Milan, January 26, 1879. He identifies specimens obtaiued by him from 

 the Gulf of Naples with the types of Q. argenteus, collected by Guicheuot iu Algiers. 



Micromesistim poutassoii. Viuciguerra obtaiued two specimens iu the Gulf of Genoa, 

 July 26, 1879, at a depth of about 600 meters (Crociere dclle Violante, 86). 



Page 357 : Pliycis blcnn ioidvs (Briinnich ), Schneider. A specimen was taken by the Rev. 

 Mr. Green off the southwest coast of Ireland at a depth of 150 fathoms (Giinther, Ann. 

 and Mag. Nat. Hist., November, 1880, 417). This observation couuects similar ones on the 

 coast'of Scandinavia and oft' Spain and Portugal. Viuciguerra obtaiued about thirty exam- 

 ples of this species in the Gulf of Genoa, July 16, 1879, at a depth of about <i00 meters, and 

 in June of the same year a considerable number of others, at a depth of 90 meters iu the 

 same region. 



Page 365: Physiculus. Gilbert has described two species of this genus from the Alba- 

 tross explorations off the southern coast of California, as follows: 



P. rastrelliger, Gilbert (Proc. U. S. N. M., xili, 1890, 113). Many specimens from sta- 

 tions 3045 and 2987, in 184 aud 171 fathoms. 



P. nematopus, Gilbert [loc. cit., 114). Many specimens from stations 2907,3011, 3015, 

 and 3016, in 71 to 221 fathoms. 



P. roseus, Alcock (Ann. aud Mag. Nat. Hist., July, 1891, 28), is represented by a single 

 specimen, 7 inches in length, obtained by the Inrestigator in the Bay of Bengal, at station 

 115, iu 188 to 220 fathoms. It has the short dorsal nearest to that of P. peregrinus, and the 

 short anal nearest to that of P. fulvus. 



Page 365: Physiculus argyropastus, Alcock (Jouru. Asiatic Society of Bengal, 1893, 

 LXii, PI. II, 180, PI. IX, fig. 2; 1804, Lxiii, Part ii, No. 2, p. 7), was obtained by the Investi- 

 gator in the Bay of Bengal at 162 and 170 fathoms. Alcock, at the reference last cited, 

 gives a table of characters separating the two Indian Ocean species.
