Some of the species from Lattorf are represented in the Collection 
by a small series of otoliths numbered 40505-07. Purchased. 
There are also various undetermined otoliths of Gadidae from the 
Pliocene of Orciano (Tuscany) and Antibes (Erance). 
The Ophidiid^ are unknown among fossils, except perhaps by one 
imperfect skeleton and several otoliths, which have been described 
as follows and are not represented in the Collection : — 
Ophidium voltianum., A. B. Massalongo, Specimen Photogr. Anim.

The species difformis was previously named Otolithus 
{Gadidarum) difformis, E. Koken, loc. cit. vol. xxxvi. 
(1884), p. 547, pi. xi. fig. 11. Several varieties are 
recognised. 
The specimen described as follows is too imperfect for exact 
determination :— 
Brotula (?) longipinnata, D. G. Kramberger, Jahrb. k.-k. geol. 
Eeichsanst. vol. xxx. (1880), p. 570, pi. viii. fig. 6.— 
Tertiary; Kikolschitz, Moravia. [Imperfect fish; Im¬ 
perial Geological Survey, Vienna.]^ 
The Maceijkid^ are also unknown among fossils, except perhaps 
by the otoliths. Here may be placed the following:— 
7034 a. Three otoliths of the form named Otolithus {Macrurus) 
4 -.
