Seven large specimens partly disintegrated, were taken from the stomach 
of Salvelinus malma Walb. at Benard harbour. In the probosces of these speci- 
mens the paragnatha of VI vary from three to five, with four as the most fre- 
quent number, these being large in size as is typical. The paragnatha of I 
vary from one to four, in the latter case being arranged as at the angles of a 
diamond-shaped area instead of in a line, as is more usual. The band across 
VII and VIII with the smaller caudal paragnatha in all the specimens examined 
in fewer series than usual. A specimen from Port Burwell on Hudson strait is 
atypical in dentition, bearing in each area VI only two large stout teeth con- 
tiguous with each other in a transverse line. The minor posterior denticles of 
VII and VIII are comparatively few. 
This is a cosmopolitan species widespread in the Arctic and Antarctic 
oceans and in the Atlantic and Pacific oceans along the European, American, 
and European coasts.
