the residue and were principally dead shells. Among the more notable forms were Bulmina ovula, 

 Cydammina cancellata, Pulvinulina uinbunata and Anomalina iimbilicatula, sp.n. Many species of 

 Lagena.

25. iv. 27. 48° 30' 45" S, 63° 33' 45" W. Dredge, 1 18 m. 



Fine brown sand without mud, and practically devoid of organisms. Careful elutriation 

 yielded twenty-four species of Foraminifera mostly represented by a few specimens only, none 

 being of particular interest.

26. iv. 27. 50° 18' 48" S, 58° 28' 30" W. Dredge, 145 m. 



Dark grey sand with little mud, and scanty organic remains. Uvigerina angulosa dominant, 

 with Cassididina crassa, suhghhosa and parkcriana present in almost equal abundance. Haplo- 

 phragmoidcs crassimargo and llyperamwina friabilis were common. Most other species sparingly 

 represented, though the list was fairly long. 



WS210. TS 484. Bill. 



29. V. 28. 50° 17' 00" S, 60" 06' 00" W. Dredge, i6i m. 



Fine olive-green muddy sand with abundant Foraminifera, Uvigerina angulosa dominant, all 

 other species except Cassidulina crassa, Truncatidina lobatida and Pulvinulina karste?ii scantily 

 represented. 



Some fragmentary hydroids encrusted with Triincatulina and three selected specimens of 

 Miliolina procera were also received from nets on trawl. 



WS213. TS486. BII. 



30. V. 28. 49° 22' 00" S, 60° 10' 00" W. Nets on trawl, 249-239 m. 



A small quantity of organic debris and sand yielded a few interesting species including 

 Tholosina protea, sp.n., T. vesicularis and var. erecta. 



A few specimens of Prolobotellina cylindrica were also received which had been selected from 

 residues on the ship. 



WS215. TS491. BI. 



31. V. 28. 47° 37' 00" S, 60° 5c' 00" W. Dredge, 219 m. 



Fine sand, dark in colour and muddy. Foraminifera rather scanty, Uvigerina dominant. 

 Among the species of interest were Cydammina cancellata and Nodosaria pauperata, both megalo- 

 spheric and microspheric, and Vaginulina spinigera. 



WS217. TS493. BI. 



I. vi. 28. 46° 28' 00" S, 60° 18' 00" W. Dredge, 146 m. 



Dark olive-green muddy sand with very little coarse material. Foraminifera plentiful but 

 pauperate. Cassidulina spp. and Uvigerina spp. as usual dominant. Many species of Lagena 

 occurred at this station. 



WS219. TS492. BI. 



3.vi.28. 47° 06' 00" S, 62° 12' 00" W. Dredge, 115 m. 



Dark brown muddy sand with few organisms of any kind. The Foraminifera mostly dead 

 and worn shells. Fragments of Jaculella obtusa were abundant, as also were Cassidulina crassa and 

 Truncatulina bradyana. The few other species were of very rare occurrence. 



WS221. TS490. A I. 



4. vi. 28. 47° 23' 00" S, 65° 10' 00" W. Dredge, 76 m. 



Muddy gravel with shells. Many sessile species on the larger fragments, including Dendrophrya 

 erecta, Dendronina papillata, Nubecularia lucifuga and Tholosina vesicularis var. erecta. The finer 

 material yielded a long list of interesting species, including Webbinella hemisphaerica, Nodosaria 

 pellita and Nonionella iridea, sp.n.
