Fishes from the Falklands and the Burdwood Bank. 
This collection comprises 14 species. Among them there are two very well de- 
fined new species of the genus Notothenia. Another species of Notothenia is found 
new to the district, so is also Maynea and a Liparis which might prove to be en- 
tirely new. An Ilucocoetes appears to differ from specimens collected at Tierra del 
Fuego. According to Dollo’s valuable extracts 1 2 from the literature the fauna of 
the Falklands contained 21 species. This number is by this collection increased to 
at least 26. The additions which are not entirely new to science were before known 
from the Magellan territory, with which the Falklands also otherwise closely agree 
with regard to its Ichthys. 
BOULENGER has not long ago described from the Falklands a fish Pluicocoetes 
flavus 2 not found elsewhere and therefore probably endemic at these coasts. The 
discovery of some more fishes about which a similar supposition can be made is of 
interest, and points out the long isolation of the Falklands from the biological centre 
of the Magellan Archipelago, or the southern end of the South American continent.
