The species principally used for this investigation was Bdellostoma Dombeyi, the ordinary hag-fish of the Pacific coast; some points of the gross anatomy, however, were worked out from specimens of B. Forsteri, from the Cape of Good Hope. There is no difference in the gross anatomy of the two species but that of size, and the B. Forsteri, being slightly larger, made some of the fine dissection easier.
