" ; A large ossified spine springs from its gill-cover and extends right along the side of its body, and it has very large teeth ; it has a beautiful silvery appearance. Our bait (sprats) was unfortunately several months old, so that this experiment cannot be regarded as in any way conclusive. In the nets there were three pilot-fish {^Naitcrates d2Lcto7%. Fig. 76. Naucrates diictor, L. Nat. size, 23 cm. Fig. 76), and under the boat when hauling in the nets a number of fish were noticed, of which we saw a good many subsequently ; they seemed to be plentiful near the surface of the sea, and two species, Lirus ^naculahis (Fig. ']']^ and Lints oralis, were eventually secured. At Station 51 we fell in with larger and smaller patches of drifting Sargasso weed with the ordinary gulf-weed animals clinging to it, such as small crabs, naked molluscs, and fishes.
