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 [5 1 z inch. When 

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

 viola (comp. the figure of Haloporphyrus viola in Goodes 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 Brotulidce, and which was discovered by the Nor- 

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

 fathoms (Biloculiua-clay, bottom temperature -h 1.4). only this single specimen (297' nm ) 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 i22 mm . 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 vertebras of the body is between 9 and n, of the tail between 53 and 58. The localities 

 are the following-:
