Mr. Keane first put me on the track of this name by giving 
ine approximately the sound of a word meaning twelve eyes, 
which he had heard from fishermen at Ardmore. 
Gurnard.

There are several kinds of Gurnards, but only the two principal 
forms need be considered. 
Grey Cxurnard or Knowd (knud-an)— ciu'ro^vn (2), cimi-oah (9), 
c]\uc\'OAn (3), c]\uAT)Ati 5lAf (3).

Hake (kobm-or).

The first two Irish words are derived from the Scandinavian 
" Kollemor," meaning " black-mouth." 
Halibut (skala-furt). 
? fCAtx3ipO]\C (7). 
Dinneen definc^s the Irish word as meaning a large flat-fish, 
but this description might apply to a dozen different kinds 
of fish. It occurred to me that the English word Halibut might 
possibl}/ be derived from the Gaelic fCAl-ApojAc (cf. CAlAt)po|\c, 
shore, pier, witli prefixed f). 
Herring (skad-an).
