i 4 o DISCOVERY REPORTS 



occasionally there is an additional oviduct, at the other end of the gonad. About six short sperm ducts 

 (s.d.) are scattered along the mesial surface of the gonad. 



Remarks. As I have stated above I see no reason to distinguish between Herdman's two species of 

 Ascopera, and the name A. gigantea has priority. Mxhaelsen (1904) described a new species A. bou- 

 vetensis from three small specimens collected at Bouvet Island. It is very likely that this species should 

 also be referred to A. gigantea, from which it seems to differ in nothing but size. 



Distribution. Antarctic (Kaiser Wilhelm II Land, Graham region, South Sandwich Islands, 

 South Shetlands, South Georgia, Kerguelen, PBouvet Island).
