A MONOGRAPH OF THE EXISTING CRINOIDS 319 



Jamestown, St. Helena; rocky coast; Dr. Th. Mortenscn, February 1, 1930 

 [Gisldn, 1933]. 



Jamestown, St. Helena; 36 meters; Dr. Th. Mortensen, February 4, 1930 [Gisl^n, 

 1933]. 



Sea-cow Cove, St. Helena; 27 meters; Dr. Th. Mortensen, February 11, 1930 

 [Gisl^n, 1933]. 



Prosperous Bay, St. Helena; rocky coast; Dr. Th. Mortenscn, February 17, 1930 

 [Gisl^n, 1933]. 



No locality [P. H. Carpenter, 1888; Bather, 1889; Bateson, 1894; A. H. Clark, 

 1908]. This is the 6-rayed specimen La the British T^Iuseum; it probably came from 

 Rio de Janeiro. 



No locality [Leach, 1815; Leuckart, 1833; J. Miiller, 1841, 1849; Dujardin and 

 Hup6, 1862; P. H. Carpenter, 1879, 1888; A. H. Clark, 1908, 1911, 1912]. 



No locality [J. E. Gray, 1826]. 



No locality [(Leach), 1830]. 



No locality; U. Clou6, 1847 [A. H. Clark, 1911] (1, P. M.). 



No locahty; probably Brazil (1, U. S. N. M., 35407). 



No locahty [P. H. Carpenter, 1882; A. H. Clark, 1912] (2, H. M.). 



No locality [A. H. Clark, 1913] (1, B. M.). 



No locality [A. H. Clark, 1913] (4, B. M.). 



No locality (4, E. I.). 



Doubtful locality. — Saya de Malha; 548-914 meters; Sea Lark; Prof. J. Stanley 

 Gardmer [Bell, 1909; A. H. Clark, 1911, 1912, 1915]. 



Erroneous localities. — Chile (or ChQi) [Gay, 1854; Dujardin and Hup^, 1862; 

 P. H. Carpenter, 1881, 1888; A. H. Clark, 1911; Hartlaub, 1912]. In reahty Rio de 

 Janeiro ; see first mention of that locality above. 



ChOe; M. Gay, 1829 [A. H. Clark, 1911]. Same as precedmg. 



Pacific coast of South America [P. H. Carpenter, 1884]. Same as preceding. 



Panama; U. S. Coast Survey Steamer Hassler (1, M. C. Z., 314). This specimen 

 was undoubtedly collected on the Brazilian coast. It was shipped home from Panama. 

 Other specimens in the Hassler collection were similarly mislabeled. 



Valparaiso [P. II. Carpenter, 1888, p. 34]. This refers to Gay's specimens from 

 "Chile." 



Note. — The three specimens collected by the United States Exploring E.vpcdition 

 that I have examined, labeled South Pacific Ocean (U. S. N. M., 2706 and 2707) and 

 Pacific Ocean (M. C. Z., 75), are typical examples of Tropiometra carinata as it occurs 

 at Rio de Janeiro. This ex-pedition spent the sLx weeks ending January 7, 1839, 

 at Rio de Janeiro. It stayed for some time in Fiji in 1840. On leaving Fiji for the 

 Hawaiian Islands the Peacock was detached and went to Hawaii by way of the Kings- 

 mill (= Gilbert) Islands, among which it remained from April 1 to May 1, 1840. 

 The specimens collected by this expedition became badly mixed so that the labels 

 are quite unreliable. As the specimens of Tropiometra are undoubtedly T. carinata 

 and agree with others from Rio de Janeiro, and as none of the smaller forms in this 

 genus are known from farther cast than Java, it is a logical conclusion that the speci- 

 mens labeled South Pacific Ocean, Pacific Ocean, Fiji, and lungsmill Islands were 

 actually all collected during the long stay of the expedition at Rio de Janeiro.
