Among the Pteropods are Styliola acus (Eschscholtz sp.), and four 

 other species of the same genus, two of Pleuropus, Spirialis Gouldii, 

 etc. Many of these species and genera are quite new to the fauna of 

 the United States, and nearly all of them to the coast of New 

 England. They are nearly all, as far as known, characteristic Gulf 

 Stream forms.

1 have recently f wrongly given Stimpson as authority for this and 

 the next species, not having at the time access to Brandt's work, and 

 not being able to comprehend his absurdly complex nomenclature 

 from the quotation of his names by other authors.

This species is common on our eastern coast north of Cape Cod, 

 but is not quite as abundant as the last species and is seldom found 

 at low water. South of Cape Cod it is apparently confined to the 

 deeper and colder waters. 



*With the exception of the portion relating to the Crustacea, these notes have had 

 the benefit of Professor Verrill's revision, and the descriptions of all the new species 

 have been copied from his pubhshed papers, or, in the case of those here for the first 

 time described, have been prepared by him specially for these pages, and are marked 

 by his initials.
