No. 2.] AVUITEAVES — ON DEEP-SEA DREDGING. 97 



Eiilima stenostoma, Jeffreys. A single living adult was taken 

 from 160 flitlioms, to the soutli-west of Ellis Buy, Anticosti. New 

 to America. 



Asfi/ris HoIboUu, Moll. (= CoJumheUa rosacea, G\d.). Tri- 

 nity Bay, 96 fathoms, also other localities. Banges from 20 to 

 100 fathoms. 



Buccinum ciludinn, 0. Fabr. Alive, in 112 fathoms off Charle- 

 ton Point, Anticosti. 



Buccinum cyaneum ?, Brug. From 250 fathoms, mud, be- 

 tween the east poiut of Anticosti and the Bird- rocks. 



Sijjho islandicus, Chemn. Only one living example of this 

 mollusk was collected, from 112 fathoms, off Charletou Poiut, Anti- 

 costi. 



Siplio Sarsii, Jeffreys. With the above but much more fre- 

 quent ; also off Egg Island, in 70 to 80 fathoms. The epidermis 

 is very different in these two species ; but it is difficult to separate 

 them when the specimens are water worn. 



Troplion craficulatus, 0. Fabr. Off Cap-Rosier lighthouse, in 

 38 fathoms, stones, fine and living; also near the mouth of the 

 St. John's Biver, Mingau. and in 50 fathoms, sand, but dead.

 in Gasp<^ B^iy? near Cape Gaspe, on a stony bottom, in 20 or 30 

 fathoms. 



Twenty-five species of shells not previously known to inhabit 

 the seas of the Province of Quebec were collected during the two 

 cruises ; of these, twelve are new to the American side of the At- 

 lantic. 



Fishes. 



The only fishes brought up in the dredge were a young speci- 

 men of each of the following species : — 



Sehastes JVoroegicus. The Norway haddock. 96 fathoms, Tri- 

 nity Bay. 



Anarrhichas hqms. The wolf fish. 112 fathoms, off Charle- 

 ton Point, Anticosti. 



Agojius decagonus?, Schneid. With the preceding. 



It is estimated that, when the wdiole of the material collected 

 has been examined with care and all the specimens are determined, 

 upwards of 100 species of marine invertebrates new to the Gulf 

 of the St. Lawrence can be added to its previously recorded fauna. 

 Of these, from 30 to 40 species are new to the western side of the
