THE FISHES OF THE FVGOFF-EXPEDITIONS. 37 



Stippl. Bel., 1SS2, east of Beeren Island) and Bay (I.e., East Greenland, 127 fathoms, 74 17' Lat North, 

 15 20' Long. West). In Oceanic Ichthyology (p. 267) numerous localities from various northatlantic 

 places are cited. As a synonym Coitus bicornis Rhdt. is also cited here; concerning this the reader is 

 referred to what is remarked above on Icelus hamatus. 



Triglops Pingelii (Rhdt). 

 was found by Ingolf at the following localities: 



Stat Lat. N. Long. W. fathoms Bottom bottom temp. 



29: 65 34' 54° 31' off Sukkertoppen 68 sand o .2 C. 1 specimen. 



33 : °7 ' 57' 55° 3°' S.W. of Egedesminde 35 gray sand o".S C. Numerous specimens of both sexes 



and younger stages. 



34: 67 17' 54 17' off Holsteinsborg 55 sandy <>.gC. S specimens. 



From the earlier literature it will be seen, that Triglops Pingelii is found not only on the 

 west coast of Greenland, but also from Spitsbergen, from the Barents Sea (East and South of Beeren 

 Island), from the sea East and South of Jan Mayen, at Iceland, northern Norway to Christianssund at 

 South, at the Faroe Islands, and at the Northamerican shores. A long list of Eastamerican localities 

 are cited from the western Atlantic to the latitude of New England. A Tr. pleurosticus Cope from 

 Godhavn has been put on record ( Proc. Acad. Philad. 1865), but in Oceanic Ichthyology (p. 269) it 

 is as by myself (■ Viden.sk. Medd. Naturhist. Forening 1S76, p. 378) withdrawn to Tr. Pingelii. A new 

 species [Tr. Murrayi Gthr.) has meanwhile been established (Report of fishes obtained in deep water 

 on the Northwest coast of Scotland, Proc. Roy. Soc. Edinburgh XV, p. 209, tab. IV, fig. A) on a form 

 found in Mull of Cautyre at 64 fathoms and Southeast of the island of Sonda, said to be distinguished 

 by a lesser number of rays, the size of the eyes, another shape of the head and a more compressed 

 tail. From the northern part of the Pacific is cited Tr. Bra 11 i (Gilbert: Ichthyological collections 

 p. 426, t. 28), Tr.scepticus (p. 42S, pi. 28) and Tr. xenostetkus (p. 429, pi. 29;; the 2 first named of these 

 species at least are established 011 a greater number of specimens. 



Agonus decagonus Bl. 



is fished on the following places: 



Station Fat. N. Fong. W. fathoms bottom temp. 



31: 6635' 55 : 54' Davis Strait 88 1 .6 C. 



125: 66 08' i6 : 02' North of Iceland 729 brown mud -f- o .8 C.

143: 62 58' 7" 09' North of Faroe islands 3S8 sandy botom H-0.4C. Two younger specimens. 

 In Oceanic Ichthyology placed in the genus Podothecus. Outside of Greenland known from 

 Spitsbergen, the Barents Sea, Iceland, Varangerfjord and West-Fiumarken. A. malarmoides Deslongchamps, 

 probably the same species, is said to be from Newfoundland (cfr. Vidensk. Meddel. 1876, p. 381). t hi 

 other mailed Cottoids in the northern part of the Pacific the cited works of Gilbert, Jordan and 

 St arks ma}' be consulted.
