206. Boreogadus saida (Lepechin). 



Oommon northward. Eecorded by Turner from St. Michaels and by Scofleld 

 from Herschel Island, Point Barrow, and Port Clarence. 



207. Eleginus navaga (Kolreuter). 



Petropaulski; station 3642, in Avatcha Bay, Kamchatka, depth 16 fathoms. 

 Eecorded by Dr. Bean from Kadiak, St. Michaels, and Port Clarence, and by Mr. Sco- 

 fleld from Port Clarence; found at Petropaulski and Bering Island by Stejneger and 

 Grebnitzki. 



208. Antimora microlepis (Bean). 



Originally described from off Queen Charlotte Islands. A specimen taken off 

 Bogoslof, station 3634, 664 fathoms. The filamentous ray of first dorsal is ly times in 

 head instead of twice as described by Bean, and the eye is slightly shorter thau snout. 

 Our specimen is somewhat larger than the type, however. Eecorded by Dr. Gilbert 

 from about St. Paul in deep water. 



Family MACROURID^E. 



209. Macrourus cinereus Grilbert. 



Numerous specimens from station 3634, off Bogoslof Island, in 664 fathoms. 

 Originally described from near Unalaska. 



210. Macrourus acrolepis Bean. (Plate LXXXII.) 



One small specimen taken from station 3634, off Bogoslof Island, in 664 fathoms. 

 It agrees with other specimens from the coast of Oregon. The first dorsal in all has 

 11 rays. 



211. Macrourus lepturus Gill and Townsend. 



Deep waters of Bering Sea. Macrourus dorsalis Gill and Townsend, is the same 

 species, and it is very close to M. acrolepis, but the first dorsal has a greater number 

 of rays. 



212. Albatrossia pectoralis (Gilbert). 



Two adult specimens dredged by the Albatross in 664 fathoms, off Bogoslof Island, 

 station 3634. The species was known heretofore only from off the Oregon coast. 

 Nematonurus magnus Gill and Townsend, is the same species. This species is widely 

 different from Malacocephalus, and is the type of the genus Albatrossia. 



The name Albatrossia is given in honor of the vessel of the United States Fish 

 Commission, the use of which for purposes of scientific investigation has shed luster 

 on American science and added enormously to the knowledge of the life of the depths 

 of the sea. 



213. BogosloviuB clarki Jordan and Gilbert, new species. (Plate LXXXIII.) 



The genus Bogoslovius Jordan and Evermann differs from Ghalinura in having 

 the premaxillary teeth in two distinct series (as in Albatrossia), those of the inner 

 series small and representing the usual villiform band. The scales are also much 

 more spinous than in the species of Ghalinura, and the ventral filament is much 

 produced. The type species, B. clarM, shows the following characters : 



Snout short, slightly exceeding diameter of eye, 3-j^o in head, median and nasal 

 ridges very little projecting anteriorly, without radiating spines; tip of snout very
