The genus Lumpenus included those pricklebacks identified only to genus, plus three species: L. fahricii, the slender eelblenny; L. maculatus, the daubed shanny; and L. medius, the stout eelblenny. Lumpenus sp. was caught at 43 stations on 10 cruises in spring and summer over an area almost as wide as for the family, from the Aleutian Islands to 63°N and from 161°W to 174° E at stations far up on the continental shelf, over the continental slope, and over the deep central basin. Catches at individual stations were generally small and the maximum catch was only 22 larvae. Larvae of Lumpenus fahricii were caught at 12 stations on three cruises in summer over a wide area from the vicinity of Unimak Island to 65°N and from 160°W in Bristol Bay to 178°W in the Gulf of Ana- dyr. All catches of this species were made over the continental shelf and individual catches were only one or two larvae per station. L. maculatus larvae were caught at 10 stations on three cruises in spring and summer. More restricted in distribution than L. fahricii, they were found from the Alaska Peninsula to only 58V2°N and from 161°W to 173° W. All larvae of this species were caught over the continental shelf and, in contrast to most of the other stichaeids, more larvae of L. maculatus were caught in oblique and vertical tows than in surface tows. Individual catches usually consisted of only one or two larvae, with a maximum catch of 19 at a station in quadrangle 58V2°N, 170°W. A single larva of L. medius was caught in summer at a station in quadrangle 58°N, 166°W. Larvae of Stichaeus punctatus, the
