Okhotsk Sea, cast to ramcbatka. (Steindachner.) Not seen by us. From the excellent iigure Ave conclude that it belongs to I'seudo- pleuroncctes, although its pharyngeals have not licen described. It seems to us nearer to F. amerioanus than to Liopaetta ylacialis. {pinna, tin; faaoiatua, banded.) rieuroneeles ^n'rin^/iMciadM, Knek, iu Steindaciinek, Ueber einige I'leuroiiectiden, et*;., HUH Di^costris Bay, 2, pi. 1, itg. 1, 1870, Decastris Bay, mouth of Amur River; Juk- DAM &, Goss, Boview Flouuders iiud Soles, 290, 1880. 1037.
