. The Danish Ingolf-Expedition. Scientific expeditions; Arctic Ocean. The Lycodinse of North Europe and Greenland. By Adolf Severin T T fliilst engaged in working at the section ^ Ptsces for the c Conspectus Faitna: GroenlandtccB>, V V the present anthor undertook a more extended research into the Greenland species of Lycodince. This led quite natnrall>- to a revision of the remaining Lycodes-material in the Zoological Musetim, so that the work gradually developed into a systematic working out of all the species of North Europe and Greenland. From lack of material I was unfortunately obliged to omit the North American forms almost entireh'. It is right and fitting that the work in its entiret)-, as it now appears, should be published in the reports of The Danish Ingolf-Expedition» as a supplement to The Ichthyological Results , seeing that this Expedition has provided the greater proportion of the material for the research. It seems to me also that it would be an injustice to the Expedition, if its rich and valuable collection of fishes were not utilised scientifically in a greater degree than has hitherto been done, the late Prof. C. F. Liitken having been prevented by ill health from going deeper into the work. Several zoologists in foreign countries have afforded very great assistance during the course of the work, by lending me specimens which it was of special interest to study anew; without this assistance various important questions would have remained unsolved, and I take this opportimity to express m}- warmest thanks to the following scientists: Conservator J. Grieg (Bergen), Prof. N. Knipowitsch (St. Petersburg), Dr. E. Lonnberg (Upsala), Geh. , Prof. K. 1\I6bius (Berlin), Hofrat, Dr. F. Steindachner (Vienna) and Prof. T. Tullberg (Upsala). I owe especial thanks to Prof. F. A. Smitt (Stockholm) and to Prof. R. Collett (Christiania). Prof. Smitt with the utmost willingness, gave me the greatest possible freedom to study the rich c
