22 THE FISHES OF THE ■ INGOLF EXPEDITIONS. 



Lycodes Liitkenii Coll. (1. c. p. 103, pi. Ill, fig. 25). 



Is likewise taken formerly west of North-Spitsbergen (459 fathoms) and in the Kara sea. The 

 tingolfs Expedition got 6 specimens from station 116: Sonth of Jan Mayen ( 70" 05' Lat. North, 

 8° 26' Long. W.), depth 371 fathom.s, temperature at the bottom -=- 0-.4 C. The coloration is essentially 

 as in the .specimen figured by Collett: 6 — 8 light bands. 



Lycodes perspicillum Kr. [L. reticnlattis Rhdt. jnv. ?). (Tab. IV, fig. 5.) 



A young (42'"™) specimen of this species with the characteristic dress of many young Lycodidse 

 — a series of 10 darkly bordered saddle-spots across the back — was fished on sandy bottom off Sukker- 

 toppen, Davis Strait (Station 29), 64" 34' Lat. N., 54^31' Long. W., at a depth of 68 fathoms. 



L. gracilis Sars. 



To this species, after having conferred with my colleague, Prof. Collett, I have referred two 

 .specimens from station 31: Davis Strait (66° 35' Lat. North, 55° 54' Long. West, depth 88 fathoms, 

 temperature at the bottom i°.6 C.) They are 51/2 and 97^ inches long, both covered with scales. The 

 relation between the length of the head with the trunk and the entire length (100""" -=- 244""^ and 

 r cmm _^ 143™'") is about I -^ 2'/3 a 2V2. In colour they are light with more or less distinct traces of the 

 juvenile dres.s. 



L. gracilis was known from a small specimen (43'""') from the Christiania Fjord (■, Nordhavs 

 Expeditionen •> p. 106) and is later found again in Lseso Rende and in the Skager Rack in adult 

 specimens. I .suppose that Prof. Collett will give a full account of the species in its more developed 

 condition as it is now known. 



L. pallidus Coll. 



(«Nordhavs-Expeditionen . p. no, pi. Ill, fig. 26, 27; Liitken: (Kara Havets Fiske> p. 134, 

 pi. 17, fig. 1—3.) 



Of this species there are from the < Ingolf -Expedition : 



Hitherto known from the northern coast of vSpitsbergen, 260 — 458 fathoms (Collett) and from the Kara 

 sea (Liitken). The .specimens from the < Ingolf expedition have a size reaching to 245""". The larger
