The majority of these were captured well out at sea, and are young stages of 
oceanic fishes, or oceanic larvae (Leptocephalus, Bothus ocellatus) of coast fishes. 
Exceptions to this are the larvae and young fishes taken in Melbourne Harbour and 
others captured a few miles off Rio de Janeiro (Sardinella, Glyphidodon, Gobiosoma, 
Ancylopsetta, Symphurus) ; also some of the New Zealand species were taken near the 
coast and may never be oceanic. 
Of some importance in its bearings on the geographical distribution of coast-fishes 
is the capture of young Hemirhamphus unifasciatus and Cryptotomus ustus, Brazilian 
species, far out in the Atlantic. 
Of greater interest is the case of Limnichthys fasciatus, known previously as a 
little fish of the rock-pools of New South Wales and Lord Howe Island ; now its range 
is extended to New Zealand, and its occurrence in localities so wide apart is explained 
by the capture of the young fish at or near the surface between the Three Kings Islands 
and New Zealand.
