Summary:In this account 101 species of fishes derived from the bottom hauls on the shelves of the coast of Portugal and of Morocco, the Great Meteor Seamount, the Josephine Seamount and the Gettysburg Bank have been identified and arranged in systematic order. For all a few of the most relevant synonyms are mentioned, the material is enumerated and measurements are given under the stations it has been taken at. Only some of the most common and well-known species were not described, for others a short to detailed description is given, and some taxonomical and morphological points are discussed. The range of distribution of each species has been treated as comprehensively as possible. The stations, their dates, exact positions, depths and gear are given in a list.
