Moreover, several of the species, both the old and the new, 

 are established from specimens in a very early stage of

Here too, the identity of L. csmarhii aud L. vahlii is dwelt

 mark to the University Museum two full-grown examples of the 

 former. The fry-specimen of L. frigidns, taken on the North Atlantic 

 Expedition in 1878, on the banks off the Lofoten coast, is mentioned 

 as comprised in the Norwegian Fauna.

L. pacijicus, n. sp. (preserved in the Berlin Museum), stated 

 to be from .lapan, is here described and figm-ed. The species being 

 ■ndthout vomerine and palatine teeth should, perhaps, be classed under 

 a separate sub-genus, for which the name of Lycodopsis is suggested.

A new species, the second met with in the Pacific Ocean, is 



here established and fully described, from an individual ha\aug a total 



length of 330""", under the name of L. turneri. It belongs to the 



scaleless species, of which, in a strict sense, but one other tnie 



species is known to exist, viz. L. mncosus,. Rich. ; for, of the remain- ' 



ing species stated to be scaleless, 1 is imperfectly described, and 



has not since been metwåth (L. polaris, Sab.); and 2, L. rossi, Malmgr., 



and L. gracilis, M. Sars, are other, scaled forms in the fi-y stage of 



development, which, perhaps, is also the case with the fourth, L. sarsii, 



Coll. The colour is dark, with light transverse bands; body and 



structure of teeth typical. (17. L. turneri, Bean 1879).

 vol. n, p. 44—40; 22nd March [printed 23rd May] 1879). 



The new species, L. paxillus, is described from a single indiv- 

 idual, 'not wholly free from mutilation, with a total length of 303"'"', 

 taken on the coast of Nova Scotia. Its characteristic featm-es are 

 stated to be the short head, a peculiar cm-vature of the upper jaw, 

 the powerful development of the maxillary muscles, and the small 

 number of pectoral rays. It belongs to the elongated forms, and 

 has a plump, scaled body, uniform in colour.

Two individuals, believed to belong to Lycodes vahlii. Rein- 

 hardt, — total length respectively .'140"'"' and 032"", — were taken 

 on the banks south of Nova .Scotia, in 1879. I shall subsequently 

 show that these indi\'iduals are identical with L. esmarkii, having had 

 an opportimity of instituting a direct comparison between one of . 

 them and the tj-pical specimens of that species.
