204 Fishes 



3. List of Fishes taken by Dr. R. N. Wolfenden in Deep Water 

 in the Neighbourhood of the Straits of Gibraltar. 



We have already discussed the most interesting outcome, ichthyo- 

 logically, of Dr. R. N. Wolfenden's early spring cruise in the Silver 

 Bell in the neighbourhood of the Straits of Gibraltar. The few other 

 fishes captured in shallow water are of no particular interest, but it 

 seems worth while to put on record those taken in deeper water, as 

 such a list may be of interest to future workers in the same region. 



We have added a few notes on some of the more interesting species, 

 and for the purposes of this paper have treated the hauls made in the 

 Atlantic and Mediterranean separately.
