PISCES. 
49 
Lemon Sole {Svlea pegvm). Condi (British Pishes) mentions one 
specimen as haying occurred at Plymouth, and I have a 
record of the occurrence of two (on the same day) atPorth- 
curnow under the Logan Eoch. It is rare. 
Solenette (MonocMrus lingmtulus). Little Sole. A fish rarely 
seen, hut yet a common one. At its largest size it is so in- 
significant, that the trawlers who take it fling it overboard 
as valueless. 
CYCLO (SucKiisra Pishes) . 
Lumpfish {Cycloptems lumpus) Lumpsucker. Not uncommon. 
The blue fish being the female, and the red one the male. 
This fish is remarkably tenacious of life. (Couch abandons 
the Coronated Lumpfish of the Pauna.) 
Sea Snail {Lipm-is Vulgaris). Bare. Has been taken at Pal- 
mouth. Also called Butterfish. 
Montague’s Sucker {Liparis Montagui). Common.^ Probably the 
Network Sucker {Lepidog aster Mmaculatus : Gunther) is an 
accidental variety. 
Cornish Sucker {Lepidogaster eormliensis) “ The Sucker. Com- 
mon under stones and in small pools by the seashore. The 
double spotted Sucker (i. Umaculatus : YarreU) is probably 
an accidental variety of the Cornish Sucker. It cannot be 
distinguished from it in a satisfactory manner. 
It must, however, be remarked that Gunther and YarreU apply 
the term “ Umaculatus , the one to a fish allied to Montague’s 
Sucker, the other to a fish allied to the Cornish Sucker ; and 
with such authorities as these in view, it may weU be that a 
species exists, intermediate between Montague’s and the 
Cornish Sucker, yet allied to both. 
The Sucking Pish {Echeneis Remora). Properly belonging to the 
family Echeneidce. Has occurred attached to Codfish in the 
Bristol Channel, and has been landed in fresh condition 
taken off the body of a Shark captured in the Bay of Biscay. 
These are its only claims to be called a Cornish fish, but it 
is a pure parasite, and I have no doubt it is to bo found (if 
sought for) on the bodies of some of the largo fish occasion- 
aUy caught, especially attached under the pectorals.
