TELEOSTEI. 99 



Genus ESOX, Linnaeus. 



ESOX LUCIUS LINN&US. 



(Pike.) 

 (Vert. Forest Bed, p. 123, PLATE XVIII., FIGS. 11-14.) 



The occurrence of remains of the Pike in the Norwich Crag 

 was noticed by Messrs. K. and A. Bell in 1872. (Proc. Geol. 

 Assoc., Vol. II,, p. 212) and by Mr. H. B. Woodward in 1881. 

 (Geology of Norwich, p. 54), but I have not been able to cor- 

 roborate these records. 



The presence of the species in the Forest-bed of several 

 localities was noticed in 1882. The Pike has also been recorded 

 from the Pleistocene and is now living in Europe, Northern Asia, 

 and the northern part of North America. 



TELEOSTEAN FISH ; genus undetermined. 



There is in the Museum of Practical Geology the vertebral 

 column of a teleostean fish from the Coralline Crag of Sudbourn, 

 Orford, presented by Col. Alexander. The specimen also shows 

 part of the pectoral arch with the fin, and just above this a 

 strongly developed spine, apparently either opercular or clavicular. 

 I have been unable, at present, to identify these remains, but the 

 spine seems to suggest an affinity with such a form as Coitus scorpius 

 or one of the Weevers.
