Extract

The haemogregarine which is the subject of the present communication was obtained in material collected by me during two voyages made in a trawler in July 1910, round the Shetlands and the north coast of Scotland. It was found in large adult specimens of catfish (Anarrhichas lupus), taken by otter trawl from a depth of 50 to 80 fathoms, in the vicinity of Fair Isle and Foula, and on Whitenhead Bank about nine miles to the N.N.E. of Cape Wrath. Catfish taken near Rhona and Sulisker in the Atlantic showed no infection, but the number of fish examined was so small that one could not assume the infection to be absent in this locality.
