Den følgende Analyse viser en forholdsvis ringe For- 

 skjellighed fra den første. Bundproven fra Station 267 er 

 imidlertid optaget paa et større Dyb.

Between tbis and the following analysis there is a 

 siight difference; the sample from Station 26 7 was however 

 brought up from a greater depth.
