190 DREDGING RRPORTS ; 
Amphiura Chiajei, Ophiocoma granulata, Amphidotus cordatus, 
Cucumaria elongata, and Thyone raphanus. 
Ophiura squamosa is a rare species recently described ; it has 
been taken at Cullercoats by Mr. Alder, and at Seaham by 
myself; we had not, however, recorded its capture. 
Amphiura Chiajei is also a rare species; only two or three 
much mutilated specimens were obtained, although large 
numbers of the discs and rays of Ophiocoma filiformis were 
dredged, with which it is associated : it is impossible to obtain 
these species in a perfect state with the ordinary dredge. 
Considering the little dredging that was done, owing to 
unfavourable weather, the list is a very fair one. The number 
of specics obtained from the three localities is as follows :—
