Abstract
My former account was taken from a Squalus Maximus caught at Hastings, in November, 1808, and the parts which I examined were brought to London my Mr. CLIFT, who went down, at my desire, to dissect them; but the weather being stormy and cold, the fish was brought no further than the beach, so that the examination was conducted under great disadvantages, and the parts brought away were in a mutilated state. The sketch of the fish made upon the spot by Mr. CLIFT is now found to be generally correct, except the omission of a small fin between the anus and tail, which had been buried by the weight of the fish in the sand.Keywords
