Wash on 29tli December, 1881 {vide Trans. Xorfolk and Norwich 
Nat. Soc. vol. iii. p. 415). A young female of this species was also 
killed on Breydon on the 28th November, 1882. The latter I saAV 
in the flesh, and prepared the skull, which is now in the Norwich 
Museum. I had more than once been told of the occurrence of 
Seals, which I suspected to be of this species, but had no 
opportunity of verifying.

I include this species with some hesitation ; but if Messrs. Paget’s 
entry, Bakena mysticetus — Common Whale — a small one taken 
near A'’armouth, July 8th, 1784,” refers to a Bight Whale at all, — 
which at that date there is no reason why it should not do, — it can 
only indicate this species. The entry is so precise, and there 
were so many men then living in Yarmouth Avho had taken an 
active part in the Northern Wliale Fishery, that it seems im- 
X)robablo a Fin Whale shouhl hav'e been mistaken for a true 
Bala;na.

Since my list was published in 1871, a Whale of this species 
came on shore at Happisburgh on the 1st March, 1875 ; and on the 
9th August of the same year, another was found floating dead in 
the Lynn Boads.
