All these localities are, as it will be seen, south, southwest or west of Iceland though one of them 

 rather near to the coast of East-Greenland. The largest specimen has a length of 15 '/^ inch. When 

 the first dorsal ra>- is well preserved it proves to be considerably larger than it is figured in Antimora 

 viola (comp. the figure of Haloporphyrus viola in Go odes «The fisheries and fishery industries of the 

 United States*, Sect. I, pi. 64). 



Rhodichthys regina Coll. (Tab. Ill, fig. 4). 



Of this .species, which is classed with the BrohcUda ^ and which was discovered by the < Nor- 

 wegian North sea expedition) in the sea between Beeren Island and Finmarken at a depth of 1280 

 fathoms (Biloculina-clay, bottom temperatures i\4), only this single specimen (297™™) was known which 

 is described and figured by Prof. Collett (den norske Nordhavs Expedition >, Fiskene, p. 154, pi. V, 

 fig. 37 — 39). The Ingolf expedition brought home several more or less well preserved specimens; 

 the length of the largest does not exceed 122"™. In one of them the left ventral is tripartite instead 

 of bipartite, as usual. They are not uniformly red as the original type of the species, but spotted or 

 figured , with small brownish spots , which interrupt the reddish bottom colour of the skin. The 

 number of vertebrae of the body is between 9 and 11, of the tail between 53 and 58. The localities 

 are the followinsf:
