FISH CAUGHT BY WOMAN WITH
A HEAD LIKE A DOG
•
.. iFree; the Post-latelligcnoer) ..
A fish, withoat scales aad with a
h?sd shaped like a dog's the third
of sis species fawwt ever to'have
ex sued and saw! to he the «*ly P»'t
feet specimen, is exhibited by Prof
Trevor Kincaid at the University
of Washuagtoa. The first specimen
feu-ad -.s at the -National -r.asets® at
Washiagtcn. £». C.. and the second
Ui third are at the university.
The atrutus WTlSoughbyi as it is
knew* scjenuficaliy. was seat to j
Pmf. Kr.kaid by Mrs. Mab3e W'eiler.
who caught it reoealiy in Gig Har
bor. The fish was oe exehihitior.
at Tacoma for a few days, but was
act identified until it reached the
gajieisity.
The species Is distinct from ary -
ether, according to the biologist- It
has been classed with the ragfish
family, which it most ci-nse’y re
semhies, bat Prof- Kincaid believes
that a careful study, such as he
plaas to make, wilt show that it be
longs in a separate family, which
has bo other representative.
The specisen found is more than
five feet in length. The two pefvk
fias near the head with which
race* fish are provided, are not
there, although the pectoral firs are
as their normal position below. The
orsal and ventral fins, running a
loeg the body above and below, are
}«eg and narrow. The teeth are sc
small as to be almost invisible.
Ia 18ST Charles Willoughby. then
Indian agent at the Quina-ili reser
nues. found the first specimen of
jhe fish thrown up on the shore fey
a storm, and sent it to the Xatiocsal
asaseurs. The fish, whseh was e-oev
siderab?y battered, was five feet
three inches hs length. The second
specimen was sent to the university
several years ago by local fish brok
ers. but had been badly cut by fish
ermen. That caught fey Mrs. Weller
proved a mystery to the fishermen
at Gig Harbor, who decided that It
must have wandered into the Sound
It is five feet tea inches is length.
The last found specimen is in
perfect esmditior. and is being pre
served ia the loo-logy labs lory. A
close study of the body and struc
ture c-f the skeleton is necessary.
Prof. Kincaid says, before the cues
tioe of whether it should go Into a
separate family can be determined,
^he ragfish. which it most resem
Fes, is native to the Pacific coast.

-as recently discovered at Crete,
Nebraska, in honor of Dr. Oliver F
'lay. of the Carnegie. Institute, who
'. s sprat some in the Study
-f the specimen, and who concurs
i the belief that it is new.
The jaw was found in a sand pit
,i few blocks front the center of the
town. Though finely preserved It
*vas badly broken and damaged in
he pit. Pieces that had been car
ried away as relics were returned,
nd important additional bits were
-btained from a careful screening
of the surroundnlng gravel under
he direction of the Nebraska Geo
'ogical Survey.
Associated with the jaw were
fragments of a large task. The jaw
and teeth of an exceptionally large
rj» interesting new Pleistocene
"**orse were found two blocks distant
in the sane deposit. The chief dis
tinguishing features of the Eiepbas
hayi are: unusual length of raan
b’e: the last molar small, narrow
and anterior to the coronoid: trans
'■■eree ridges 10 to 11: angle distinct
nd sharp posteriorly; coronoids an
omm >nly prominent, deeply pitted
set very obliquely.
