It is very doubtful whether the prickly breast {alascanus) and narrow interorbital (pentacanthus) which separate pentacanthus and alascanus are good characters. In this large series some have the prickly breast but narrow interorbital. With a larger series these 2 species would very probably run together. 178. Xenochirus alascanus Gilbert. This species was not taken by us. It was originally described by Gilbert (1895) from vicinity of Unimak Pass at stations 3216, 3219, 3223, 3225 to 3226, 3257, 3258, 3263, 3309 to 3311, 3313, 3322r3334, 3336, and 3339. Recorded from Karluk (Jordan & Gilbert 18991. 179. Xenochirus latifrons Gilbert. We have 142 specimens, to 6 inches long, collected by J. P. Todd near Seattle, 1903. 180. Odontopyxis trispinosus Lockington. One specimen, inches long, dredged at station 4221; one specimen, inches long, dredged at station 4193; the species also seen at station 4226, near Loring. and station 4243. Kasaan Hay.

Nol found by recent Fig. t)7.—Aspidophoroides guntheri Bean. 182. Aspidophoroides bartoni Gilbert. Eleven specimens, 2 to inches long, were dredged at stations 3599 (Bering Sea), 4273, 4276, 4279. 4283, 42S5, 4286, 42S9, 4291. and 4292. This species was originally described by
