ZOOLOGY. 



REPORT on the Seals collected during the Voyage of H.M.S. Challenger 

 in the Years 1873-76. By Sir William Turner, Knt., M.B., LL.D., 

 F.R.SS. L. & E., Professor of Anatomy in the University of Edin- 

 burgh, Member of the General Medical Council. 



In the first volume of the Reports of the Scientific Results of the Voyage of H.M.S. 

 Challenger (Zoology, vol. i., part iv., 1880) I gave an account of the Bones of the 

 Cetacea which had been collected by the expedition. 



In this Report it is my intention to describe the Seals, and therefore to complete the 

 account of the Marine Mammals which were entrusted to me for examination and 

 description. 



Specimens of Seals were procured by the expedition in the following localities : — 



The Kerguelen Group of Islands. 



Heard Island. 



Messier Channel, off the west coast of Patagonia. 



The Falkland Islands. 



Juan Fernandez. 



These specimens belong to the genera Macrorhinus, Leptonychotes, Otaria, and 

 Arctocephalus.
