Remarks. The white spots mentioned in the note 

 on the label (St. 170) are still quite clear in the pre- 

 served specimens from this station and are present, 

 though less well marked, in specimens from some of 

 the other stations also. 



The spurs on the cephalon are longer and more 

 slender in the specimens from St. 42, 156 and 159 and 

 the short spinous projection on each lateral process is 

 more pronounced than is typical of the species. 



Segments 5-10 of the male and female ovigers are 

 represented in Fig. 42 a and b. The two globular 

 bodies attached to the ventral surface of the specimen 

 from St. 187 (Fig. 43) appear to be egg cases of some 

 animal ; they can be detached without damaging the 

 Pycnogon and are apparently only glued on to the specimen
