within a limited range. The octopus Polypus himaculatus is 

 abundant along the rocky shore and may be obtained at low tide. 

 The sand, the rocks and the sea weeds are alive in many places 

 with Crustacea of many sorts, crabs and sand fleas of many 

 species are abundant. There are several species of barnacles, 

 and many very small crustaceans may be seen in the tide pools. 

 Fish are abundant at Laguua and near by. Several species of 

 sharks are found off shore, the shovel nose Rhinobatus pro- 

 ductus among them. The moray Gymnothorax mordax is found 



Lucnpina crenulnta. Dorsal and ventral views. From Guernsey, first Laguna report. 



under rocks near shore at low tide. The flying fish Cypselurus 

 californicus occurs off the coast and many other fish are 

 abundant out a short distance about the kelp beds. A great 

 variety and abundance of forms may be seen in the numerous 

 tide pools, including one very interesting blind species. 



In addition to the wealth of the sea, the hills and canyons 

 furnish collecting places for many land forms and it is expected 

 that the land and fresh water species will also be studied. 



Laguna may be reached by auto stage from Irvine or Santa 

 Ana. Stages run twice a day each way in the summer and once 

 in the winter.
