*Aphrodita aculeata, Zmw. 



This, the common sea-mouse, is a well-known and widely distributed 

 species. Though so common, it is not often taken by the Association in 

 their dredging and trawling operations, but considerable numbers are 

 brought into the port by the local fishermen, and some of these are of 

 very large size. 



Mobius (27), dealing with the North Sea, states that it frequents a 

 soft bottom of mud, muddy sand, or sand and shells, shells, sand, and 

 small stones, to a depth of 100 fathoms and over. 



Pruvot (29) records it from the Himanthalia zone among seaweeds, 

 where the bottom is sandy, on the coast of Brittany, and from coastal 

 mud or sand of the open sea in the Golfe du Lion.

f LiETMATONlCE FILICORNIS, Kinherg. 



As regards the Channel this species has only been taken on the 

 oyster ground off St. Peter Port, Guernsey, along with Hermione 

 (Mcintosh, 20). It appears to be a northern species, and is found at 

 considerable depths, chiefly on muddy sand. 



Mobius (27) records it on mud in the North Sea.
