Manchester Memoirs, Vol. xlv. (1901), No. 4. 3 



Postscript. — Since the above paper was in type I have 

 received a letter from Dr. Pfeffer, in which he tells me that since my 

 visit to Hamburg he has dissected out and examined the gladius 

 of the squid in question. He finds it to agree exactly with the 

 figure given by d'Orbigny, and has, therefore, no doubt that its 

 resemblance to O. dusstanieri is to be explained by its being a 

 second example of the same species ! The type specimen of 

 the Onychotenthis ingens in the British Museum unfortunately 

 has no body, so that I have been unable to see how far it agreed 

 with Lonnberg's description. The exact nature of Lepidoteuthis 

 is still a matter of uncertainty, and we look with interest to 

 Professor Joubin's further account of it in the memoir on the 

 cephalopods collected by the Prince of Monaco.
