PISHES REGAN. 5 



lateral line without tubules. Body with dark spots or irregular cross-bars; spinous 

 dorsal blackish ; soft dorsal and anal with a blackish band which is broadest aud most 

 intense posteriorly ; caudal, pectorals and pelvics barred. Vertebrae 15 + 32. 



This species was known previously only from the type, a specimen of 110 mm. 

 taken off the Ross Barrier at a. depth of 300 fathoms. Numerous examples up to 

 180 mm. in total Length were obtained by the "Terra Nova" in the following 

 localities : — 



Off new land south of the Balleny Islands, 200 fathoms. 



Ross Sea. 74 25' S., I7!> : ' 3' E., 158 fathoms. 



Entrance to McMurdo Sound, 77' J 13' S., 164° 18' E., 207 fathoms, and 7<> ;, 5(i' S., 

 1G4° 12' E., 160 fathoms. 



McMurdo Sound, near Inaccessible Island, 222 to 241 fathoms. 



10. Trematomus lepidorhinus, Pappenh. (PI. iv, tig. 1). 



Notothenia lepidorhinus, Pappenheim, Deutsche Siidpolar-Exped. xm, Zool. v, p. 169, pi. ix, f. 1, 

 and pi. x, f. 1 (1912). 



Three examples, 135 to 150 mm. in total length, from off new land south of the 

 Balleny Islands, depth 200 fathoms. These have vi-vn, 31-33 dorsal and 34-35 anal 

 rays, 75 to 80 scales in a lateral longitudinal series, and 14 to 16 gill-rakers on the 

 lower part of the anterior arch. 



I have examined the pectoral arch on both sides in all three specimens and find 

 that the foramen is well within the hypercoracoid. I can only conclude that in 

 exposing the foramen Pappenheim must have enlarged it ventralwards, which may 

 easily occur unless care be taken. 



11. Trematomus eulepidotus, Regan (PI. iv, tig. 3). 



Trematomus eulepidotus, Regan, Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist. (8) xm, 1914, p. 12. 



Depth of body 3^ to 4^ in the length, length of head 3f to 3|. Diameter of eye 

 3. 1 . to 3g in length of head, interorbital width 4^ to 5. Maxillary extending to below 

 anterior | of eye ; head covered with scales, only the lips naked. 14 or 15 gill-rakers 

 on lower part of anterior arch. Dorsal vi, 35-36. Anal 33-34. Pectoral -| to | 

 length of head ; pelvics extending to vent or origin of anal. Caudal truncate. 

 Caudal peduncle as long, or nearly as long as deep. 70 scales in a longitudinal series 

 from above pectoral tin to caudal, 42 to 46 in upper lateral line, 10 to 15 in lower. 

 Sides of body with dark spots connected to form a network ; dorsal fin with oblique 

 dark stripes. 



Two specimens, 140 and 16-5 mm. in total length, the smaller taken at the entrance 

 to McMurdo Sound, 76° 56' S., 164° 12' W., at a depth of 160 fathoms, the larger from 

 near Inaccessible Island, depth 222 to 241 fathoms. There are two larger examjdes, 

 220 and 250 mm., in bad condition, also from McMurdo Sound, taken off Granite 

 Harbour at a depth of 50 fathoms.
