' Phy$iculu8 daltvigkii was included in the Synopsis on the basis of an erroneous 

 identification. It should be omitted. A species of Physiculus has, however, been 

 recently found. Physiculus fulvus Bean, Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., 1884, 240. Gulf 

 Stream, latitude 40,° in 76 fathoms. 



'Lotella Kaup. 



(Kaup, Wiegmaun's Archiv, 1858, 88; type Lotella schlegeli Kaup.) 



This genus differs from PhyniculuH chiefly in the ])resenee in both jaws of an outer 

 TOW of large teeth. Deep .sea. (Name, a diuiinntive of Lota.) 



Lotella viaxillaris Bean, Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., 1884, 241. Gulf Stream, latitude 40°. 



^It seems best to regard the different sectious of Gadns, as given in the Synopsis, 

 as distinct genera. Melanogrammua, especially, is well distinguished by the swollen 

 form of the bones of the shoulder girdle. 



*For description of Gadus ogac, which is regarded by Mr. Dresel as a valid species, 

 see Dresel, Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., 1884, 24fi. 



{Gadus ogac Richardson, Fauna Bor.-Amer., Ill, 183G, 246. Greenland. 



" Pleurogadus Bean, uom. gen. no v. to be substituted for T(7e.sia, preoccupied. Type 

 Gadus navaga Kolreuter= Gadus gracilis Tilesius. (Bean.)
