When 1 was requested to give a list of the fishes collected by 

 the Amdrup -expedition of 1898—99 and the Amdrup-Hartz- 

 expedition 1900, I resolved also to take into consideration the 

 material v^^hich the Zoological Museum has obtained in other ways 

 up to last autumn, and to compile the notes upon this subject spread 

 in literature or, in other words to give a general survey of the 

 Fish-Fauna of East-Greenland. 



My colleagues will perhaps think that the material at hand 

 is not everywhere treated as universally as might be wished. I 

 admit this objection to be justified, but at the same time I must 

 inform them that I am just now preparing a survey of the Fish- 

 Fauna of all Greenland destined for publication in Conspectus Faunœ 

 Groenlandicœ and for this reason I have not everywhere entered 

 into minute examinations. 



With respect to the position of the localities mentioned in the 

 list, 1 refer to the splendid maps in volume X and XXVll of ^ Med- 

 delelser om Grönland", and to the map in the second volume of 

 Professor Nathorst's book „Två Somrar i Norra Ishafvet" (1900). 

 In the present treatise p. 224 will moreover be found a list of the 

 localities drawn up for the greater part by Lieut. C. Amdrup. 

 Where more localities have been recorded they are arranged suc- 

 cessively from South to North. 



1 hereby tender my heartiest thanks to Prof. Dr. F. A. S mitt 

 (Stockholm) and Dr. E. Lönnberg (Upsala) who have kindly given 

 me admission to and information with regard to the fishes collected 

 by the Swedish expeditions to East-Greenland.
