The lists of species from all the localities (a, 5, c, d, e, /', q, r,) on 

 George's Bank itself, show that tlie fauna of that region is almost 

 exactly the same as in the Bay of Fundy, at the same de))ths and on 

 similar bottom. To be sure, on the one hand, several arctic species, 

 not yet found in the Bay of Fundy, occurred upon the Bank ; but on 

 the other hand, several apparently more southern forms were found, 

 as the species of Grepidxda and Stylifer. The two dredgings {h 

 and i) upon LeHave Bank seem to indicate, as we might expect, a 

 somewhat more arctic fauna than that upon George's Bank, since 

 several arctic species, not known from George's Bank or the Bay of 

 Fundy, occurred there, though Grepidula phiita was also found. 



The dredgings in deep water near the Banks indicate a fauna quite 

 different from that upon the Banks themselves. This is undoubtedly
