This is one of the earliest publications by zoologist and explorer, Sir John Richardson. His Notice of the Fishes was included as an appendix in Sir John Franklin’s Narrative of a Journey to the Shores of the Polar Sea, in the Years 1819, 20, 21, and 22 (1823). This is the scarce separate printing of Richardson’s report on the fish of this important Arctic expedition and includes his inscription to “Dr. Greville.”
