Prestwich (loc. Cit. ). Recent specimens of G. Minutus have the otoliths proportionally broader and less strongly nodular than those of G. Luscus of the same size. In large examples of G. Luscus the nodules are partially obliterated, but this is not the case in smaller ones. It is by no means easy to separate the otoliths of the two species, but there are a few from the Coralline Crag of Sutton in the Museum of Practical Geology which seem to agree best with those of G. Minutus, and they are pr...ovisionally placed in this species. Gadus minutus is now living on the Atlantic coasts of Europe, and is very common in the Mediterranean. GADUS MERLANGUS, LINNJEUS. (Whiting. ) PLATE X. , FIGS. 120, b. The otoliths of this species have also been doubtfully recorded from the Coralline Crag by Mr. Higgins and Prof. Prestwich (loc. Cit. ), but I have been unable to obtain any corroborative evidence. The late Mr. Eobert Bell sent me a small Gadoid otolith from the St. Erth Pliocene deposit, which I believe belongs ^ to this species.
