A MONOGRAPH OF THE EXISTING CRINOIDS 227 



Dr. Sixten Bock's Expedition to Japan 1914; station 56; Bonin Islands, east of 

 the Channel; 210 meters; shells and sand; August 15, 1914 [Gislen, 1922, 1924, 1927, 

 1934]. 



Geographical range. From southwestern Japan to the Bonin Islands. 



Bathymetrical range. From 165 to 210 meters. 



History. This species was described in 1907 under the name of Antedon garrettiana 

 from a single specimen from Albatross station 4894. Later in the same year it was 

 transferred to the new genus Charitometra. In 1908 Charitometra garrettiana was listed 

 as a Japanese species. In 1909 garrettiana was made the type of the new genus Chloro- 

 metra. In my memoir on the crinoids of the Indian Ocean published in 1912 Chloro- 

 metra garrettiana was listed and the synonymy and range were given. In 1915 it was 

 again listed as a Japanese species and the range and its significance were discussed. 

 In my memoir on the unstalked crinoids of the Siboga Expedition published in 1918 

 Chlorometra garrettiana was included, and I gave the synonymy and range. 



Diodontometra bocki was described and figured by Prof. Torsten Gislen in 1922 

 from a single specimen collected by Dr. Sixten Bock in the Bonin Islands in 1914. 

 In 1924 Gisl6n described and figured the syzygies and the pinnule articulations. In 

 1927 he recorded and gave notes on two additional specimens that had been dredged 

 by Dr. Th. Mortensen off southwestern Japan, figuring certain details of the structure. 

 In 1934 he listed Diodontometra bocki as representing a special type of arm division.
