The abbreviations used in denoting the nature of the bottom are : 



The depths of the water at the beginning and at the end of trawhng stations are 

 shown, as, e.g., St. 144, 155-178 m. 



GENERAL 



The number of species in this collection is shown in the following table : 



This table shows that most of the species are represented in my first paper dealing 

 with Cirripedes from the Discovery expedition (Nilsson-Cantell, 1930). Most species 

 belong also in this collection to the genus Scalpellum, only a few of which are known to 

 inhabit deeper water. The identification of young individuals of this genus is always 

 rather questionable, because many species are described from small specimens. It will 

 be seen in this paper, as in the former, that the shape of the valves of the capitulum are 

 rather different in individuals of diff^erent age.
