Pelagic species found near the borders of the Gidf Stream ojf St. 



George's Banks. 



The following pelagic species, characteristic of the fauna of the 

 Gulf Stream, were taken, in 1872, east of St. George's Banks, north 

 latitude 41° 20' to 30', west longitude 65° to 65° 30', and should per- 

 haps be mentioned hei-e, though they in no sense belong to the coast 

 fauna north of Cape Cod. Most, if not all, these semi-tropical pelagic 

 species are, however, occasionally found in summer along the south 

 coast of New England, and the coast of the Middle and Southern 

 States.
