Two young specimens (70 and 71 mm.) were collected by the same expedition with mid-water nets hauled obliquely from 169 metres to the surface. The eye is proportionately smaller in these young specimens, the diameter being nearly 6 in the length of the head, the pelvic fin-rays are simple, and the pelvic fins themselves are blackish in their distal parts.

Closely related to C. kathleenae, but with a somewhat larger eye, diameter of which is 4§ in length of head; interorbital region broader, width 3f in length of head. Dorsal VII, 37. Anal 33. Pelvics shorter, length of head. Hab. Graham Land; South Shetlands. The type of the species, 330 mm. in total length, was from south of Snow Hill, Graham Land, at a depth of 125 metres.
