The specimens described below are part of a collection of fishes assembled by a group of American, Canadian and Japanese biologists who were engaged in a study of the North Pacific fur-bearing seal during the spring of 1952. Although all three specimens are juveniles, they are sufficiently developed to be recognizable as an undescribed species and to be compared with thier known ralatives. Among other distinctive characters, the teeth of the tongue serve to identify our specimens with the family Scopelarchidae.
