LIST OF FISHES DREDGED BY THE STEAMER ALBATROSS OFF 
THE COAST OF JAPAN IN THE SUMMER OF 1900, WITH DESCRIP- 
TIONS OF NEW SPECIES AND A REVIEW OF THE JAPANESE 
MACROURIDSE. 
By DAVID STARR JORDAN and EDWIN CHAPIN STARKS. 
In the early summer of 1900 the steamer Albatross, Jefferson F. Moser, U. S. N., 
commanding, returning from the South Seas, spent a few weeks in dredging along 
the coast of Japan. Dredge hauls were made at moderate depths in Owari Bay, 
Totomi Bay off Owai Point, Suruga Bay off Ose Point, Sagami Bay off Sune Point, 
Manazurn Point, and Enoshima, in Matsushima Bay off' Nagane Point and Doumiki 
Point, and off the Island of Kinkwazan. In general the bottom was soft and l he depths 
from 20 to 60 fathoms. One hundred and eleven species of fishes were secured, 
about 58 of these being new to science at the time of discovery. In June of the same 
year Messrs. Jordan and Snyder visited Japan, and in various papers in the Proceed- 
ings of the United States National Museum the collection made by the Albatron* 
has been treated, in connection with the very extensive collections secured by them 
through other methods. The type specimens of the different new species in the col- 
lection made by the Albatross are all deposited in the U. S. National Museum. The 
figures used in the original descriptions of the new species from the Albatross collec- 
tion are reproduced in the present paper, through the courtesy of the IT. S. National 
Museum. The new plates are the work of Mr. William S. Atkinson and Mr. Sekko 
Shimada. The account of the Macrouridge was prepared by Dr. David S. Jordan 
and Dr. Charles H. Gilbert.
