1836 W. Yarrell Hist. Brit. Fishes II. 165 Some years since, I obtained from a fisherman at the mouth of the Thames a fresh-caught example of a species of morrhua, with the middle dorsal and the first anal fins short... Among the fishermen it was by some considered to be an accidental deformity, with injury of the spine, and their name for it was Lord-fish.

1883 W. S. Kent Marine & Freshwater Fishes Brit. Islands 73 The so-called ‘Lord-fish’ is one of these [varieties of Cod] in which a greater or less number of the caudal vertebræ having coalesced together, the head is relatively very long.

1903 J. Murie Rep. Sea Fisheries Thames Estuary 64 (note) The so-called Lord Fish or Large-headed Cod (G. macrocephalus) of the Thames mouth is assuredly not a separate species, but only a malformed fish.
