It will be seen from the above table of localities of 0. Ijungmani that the species 

 occurs in depths ranging from 56 to 1,209 fathoms. According to H. L. Clark 

 (01, p. 243), 0. Ijungmani has been found at Porto Eico in depths of 20 to 45 

 fathoms only. It is not so in the Eastern region of the Atlantic, where 0. Ijungmani 

 has not yet been met with except in very deep waters, about 850-1,100 fathoms. 



After studying the very rich series of 0. Ijungmani which has been intrusted 

 to me by the National Museum, I have made sure that 0. thouleti, which I had intro- 

 duced in 1896, after a single specimen, and which I had later foimd fairly abundant 

 in the Echinoderms gathered by the TravaiUeur and the Talisman, as well as 

 by the Princesse Alice, can not be separated from 0. Ijungmani. The specimens 

 which I formerly referred, and correctly, to this latter species, had always been fairly 

 numerous and of rather small size; they almost always had smaU spines on the 

 upper face of their disk, but owing to my resolution not to dry them, I was unable 

 to recognize the supplemental radial comb which I thought was a character of 

 0. thouleti. Consequently I had been inclined to refer to the latter species the 

 larger specimens in which I easily observed the supplementary radial comb, and 

 which happened not to possess any spines on the upper face of the disk. 



In fact, 0. Ijungmani always possesses within the cluef radial comb, a series 

 of very fine papiUse which advance to near the middle of the third upper brachial 

 plate, and I do not sec, after all, either in the arrangement of the plates of the disk 

 or of the arms, or in the shape of the mouth shields, any character permitting a 

 specific separation between 0. Ijungmani and 0. thouleti. Consequently the latter 

 can not be considered except as a synonym of the former.
