Fishes (Gunther, Zool. pt. 78). 
Echeneis remora, Linne (from shark). 
Although the deep tow-nets came up foul, they had evidently worked for a short time, 
for they couUuncd several specimens of Tuscaridiwm and Challenffena. Several sharks 
were seen, and two were caught, having attached Echeneis, Caligus, and Distomum; 
they were accompanied by pilot-fishes. A whale and flying-fishes were also seen. 
In the afternoon .Mr. Buchanan and Mr. Murray made several experiments from a 
lx>at on the transparency of sea-water ; a white plate, 12 inches square, could be seen 
ilown to a depth of 25 fathoms with the aid of a water-glass.
