THE HAKE AND THE SCABBARD FISH 117 On removing the roof of the bony cranium, it is found that the brain is well supported by a thick tenacious nnicus, so that it is ad- visable to harden the brain, before endeavouring to separate it from the enveloping mucus.

The brains of all the Trichiuridse hitherto examined, Plate 23, which include the white scabbard fish, the rabbit- fish (Promethicthys prometheus), and Nesiarchus nasutus, conform to the same type, and recall the type seen in the hake. The optic lobes are relatively not large, the cerebellum small, and not tongue- shaped, bearing on its lateral margins globular projections, which are the acoustic tubercles, more prominent than in the hake. The somatic-sensory lobes are well-marked, but the medulla oblongata does not show any differentiation into lobes posterior to these prominences.
