FAUNISTIC NOTES. 
Calocans maeandrene, liell. This Crustacean is evi- 
dently more common oit the coast than was suspected. In 
1908 it was found amono'st the food of the Long’ Hough 
Dab, and this year it was obtained on June 20th in 84-85 
fathoms, and on July 19th in 88 fathoms E. of St. Mary’s 
Island. It was previously recorded by Mr. Todd from a 
station 57 fathoms E.X.E. of tlie Coquet. In both cases 
noted this year it bore the Polyzoon, T riticella hnrenii, 
G. 0. Sars. 
Prdmij^es placenta (Penn). A fine specimen was found 
by Mr. T. Dunn, AVhitlej’ Bay, in a basket of gurnards 
on Nortli Shields Fish (fuay, 0th April, 1911. 
Teredo mecinrata, Hanley. Mr. Dunn brought also from 
the quay a piece of timber, which must have been got 
locally, for it was covered with living Lej)as anatifera, 
amongst wliich Teredo rnec/orata was found. The Lepas 
disappeared but the Teredo is still living in the aquarium. 
B.S. 
Crania of Large Tunny. Three skulls have been obtained 
from trawlers, one from 80 miles E. 4N., another from 118 
miles E.X.E. of the Tyne, — for the third we have no 
locality. One of them was sent to Dr. Boulenger who 
pronounced it to be the skull of a large Tunny. 
It is interesting to note here also that a Bellarmine jar 
was got by Mr. Dimn. It was brought up in the net of the 
trawler “Ben Loyal” in the spring of 1910, west of the 
Orkneys.
