1 Leidenfrost (1917, AUatt. Kozkm. Budapest, xvi, p. 13, figs. 1-3) describes several postlarval and 

 juvenile specimens of a species said to be Vinciguerria attenuata. His first figure represents a true Vinci- 

 guerria, probably V. poweriae, the second is a young stage of Ichthyococcus, and fig. 3 is probably a larval 

 Chauliodus.
