We have received this species from the Moray Frith, 
where it was procured by Mr. Gregor, of Macduff, from 
the stomach of a haddock captured in about thirty 
fathoms of water : also from Mr. Edward, of Banff, and 
the Rev. Geo. Gordon, of Elgin. It has also been sent 
to us from Cumbrae, where it was taken by Mr. D. 
Robertson ; and our lamented friend, the late Mr. Barlee, 
dredged it off the Shetlands.
