LEPTOPODIAD^E. 



tioned " a specimen dredged in Clifton Bay, Oonneman 

 by Mr. Forbes and Mr. Hall, and another in Belfast 1 

 by Mr. Patterson." The latter specimen, through the 

 kindness of Mr. Thompson, I have now before me. It is 

 young male. The same gentleman subsequently states that 

 he had seen specimens from Belfast Bay " in the Ordnance 

 collection." This is the extent of our knowledge of this 

 curious species. 



Dr. Milne Edwards has misquoted Leach's specific name 

 as " Leptorinchus" and this error has been copied by Mi 

 Couch in his " Cornish Fauna."
