TRACHINUS VIPERA Cuv. LESSER WEAVER. 
Three specimens examined fresh from the tow-nettings from outside 
the Breakwater, 2 of 22mm. in September, 1 of 5mm. in October. 
One big one contained indistinguishable Copepod and other Crustacea 
remains, the other contained one Pseudocalanus elongatus and one 
Anomalocera Pattersont. The small one contained 3 Pseudocalanus 
elongatus and one Temora nauplius. 
LOPHIUS PISCATORIUS L. ANGLER. 
Six specimens from outside the Breakwater were examined fresh from 
the tow-nettings in July, measuring 4 to 8-5 mm., 4 contained nothing, 
the other 2 indistinguishable Copeped remains. 
COTTUS BUBALIS Evrnu. Fatuer LASHER. 
Twenty-two specimens, fresh, from the tow-nettings, were examined 
in March and April from inside and outside the Breakwater, measuring 
4-5 to 10mm. The smallest were however contracted and probably 
really were longer. The specimen of 10 mm. contained no food, one of 
7mm. contained a Temora longicornis ; all the rest, excluding 4 con- 
taining nothing, contained green remains, Crustacea remains, diatoms 
or Balanus nauplii. The Balanus nauplii were in 7 specimens, and were 
in the smallest specimens. Evidently Cottus bubalis takes a mixed diet. 
One of 4:5 mm. contained the following :— 
2 larval gastropods. 
1 Biddulphia regia. 
1 Coscinodiscus radiatus. 
15 Thalassiosira gravida. 
Another specimen also contained Thalassiosira, so that here we have 
one of the post-larval fish which does take diatoms as food. 
TRIGLA GURNARDUS L. Grey GurRNarp. 
Only one specimen of 8mm., from tow-nettings in the West Channel, 
contained one Podon. 
AGONUS CATAPHRACTUS L. Armerp BULLHEAD. 
Two specimens, one from inside and one from outside the Breakwater 
in February and March, examined fresh from the tow-nettings. One 
contained nothing, the other one Coscinodiscus excentricus.
