The specimen which forms the subject of this note was sent to Dr. Allen by Miss Olivia L. Fox, of Falmouth, at the beginning of December, 1906, preserved in formalin. Dr. Allen sent it to me in London, and requested me to study and describe it. The specimen is 4·4 cm. in length, and presents a condition which has never previously been described in any species of flat-fish. I have examined it with great interest, and would express here my thanks to Dr. Allen for sending it to me.
