Lycodes Liitkenii Coll. (I.e. p. 103, pi. Ill, fig. 25). 



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

 [ngolf Expedition got 6 specimens from station 116: South of Jan Mayeu ( jo : 05' Lat. North, 

 3' Long. W.i, depth 371 fathoms, temperature at the bottom -=- o°.4 C. The coloration is essentially 

 as in the specimen figured by Collett: 6- 8 light bauds. 



Lycodes perspicillum Kr. (L. reticulatus Rhdt. juv.?). (Tab. IV, fig. 5.) 



A young (42 mm ) specimen of this species with the characteristic dress of many young Lycodidae 

 - 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 572 and 9'/ 4 inches long, both covered with scales. The 

 relation between the length of the head with the trunk and the entire length (ioo mm -f- 244""" and 

 55 mra -=- i43" ,m ) is about 1 -=- 2 x / 3 a 2 J / 2 . In colour they are light with more or less distinct traces of the 

 juvenile dress. 



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

 Expeditionen p. 106) and is later found again in Lceso 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.
