A young specimen of this species was captured in the Barents- 
Sea. The confused synonymy of the species was clearly settled by 
Dr. Lütken (l. e.), with whom however I cannot agree in regarding 
Cottus intermedius Schlegel (Fauna Japonica) as indentical with Ph. 
ventralis. The typical specimen of C. intermedius, preserved in the 
Leyden Museum has the following fin-formula: D. 9/15. A. 16. P. 17, 
and the five antler-like processes of the upper praeopercular spine 
very strong.
