Contents Notes
Four species of Liparus are recognized from Arctic Canada, and synonomies, descriptions, illustrations, distribution maps, habitat, and life history data are given. A key to nine possible species of Liparididae in Canadian Arctic waters is included. The differences between Liparis herschelinus and L. tunicatus are shown to be clinal. A new vernacular, kelp snailfish, is proposed for L. tunicatus.
