Ichthyococcus ovatus (Cocco) (Text-fig. 6) St. 1590, 240 10-4' N., 170 18' W., 13. x. 35, TYFB, 400-320 m. Standard length 34 mm. (7-0 x 2-5 mm.). While much of the structure could be seen, the swimbladder of this fish was much distorted. A single rete (length 2-0 mm.) enters the posterior end of the sac to supply a gas-gland (with one median lobe and two lateral lobes) lying on the floor of the sac. Immediately in front of the gland.
