In the following list of British Fishes we have included the 
whole of the Moray Firth, as being the most natural division we 
could make for the sea fish. We have tried to make it as full of 
detail as possible for the coasts of Sutherland and Caithness, and 
have given almost in extenso the notes so kindly supplied to us by 
Messrs. Peach and Eeid. These gentlemen lived for many years 
at "Wick, and made a study of the ISTatural History of that place, 
Mr. Peach especially taking up the branch of Ichthyology.
