FISHES. 



Early in February the Director sent a specimen of the broad-fin cod (Zaniolepis latipinnix) 

 to Dr. C. H. Gilbert, Department of Zoology, Stanford University, California, for verification. 

 It was a very peculiar fish with the tail lacking. 



Later I received from Dr. Gilbert the following : " I have received your specimen sent for 

 identification and return it to-day. It proves to be a mutilated specimen of Zaniolepis latipinnis. 

 It seems a marvel that a fish, left apparently without means of locomotion, should be able to 

 make its way in the world and to reach an adult condition as well nourished as this seems to bo. 

 I do not recall having seen a similar case in the course of my long experience of fishes." 



This peculiar specimen was taken by one of Watson's seine-boats in Stamp Harbour, near 

 Alberni, V.I., and was presented to the Museum by Mr. A. A. Rhoades. 



Mr. A. L. Hager, general manager of the New England Fish Company, Vancouver, who has 

 always shown great Interest in having his employees look out for rare specimens for the Museum. 

 and through whose efforts several species have been added \o the Provincial Museum collect inn.
