The subjoined enumeration of specimens taken during the Survey was accidentally omitted from 

 Press. It should be read after " larger specimens " in the 3rd line of the 3rd paragraph : —

 80 fathoms, off the Skelligs. In April a specimen of about 4 inches was taken from the stomach of a

 the " preceding" species referred to under R. Boscii is R. megastoma and not R. norvegictis.
