(Drawn by Helland-Hansen.) taken in cold water only, below 0° C, and mostly in small numbers, though occasionally they are more numerous. Thus a haul made by the ' Michael Sars ' to the north of the Faroe Islands, in 975 fathoms, with a trawl similar to the one used in the Atlantic, gave in two hours : 34 Paraliparis bathybii, i Rhodichthys regina, and 17 Lycodes. East of Iceland, in 467 fathoms, where the temperature was ° C, the Danish research steamer 'Thor,' on a line of 225 hooks, obtained 4 Raia hyperborea, i Greenland shark, and 20 black halibuts (Hippoglossiis hippoglossoides); the latter two species are not, however, exclusively cold-water fish.
