CHART OF 
VINEYARD SOUND 
AND 
BUZZARDS BAY 
SHOWING 
DISTRIBUTION OF SPECIES 
NEW BEDFORD® 
CHart 26.—Astrangia dane. 
Upon the chart for this coral, and those for the shell-bearing echinoderms and mollusks, the circles 
surrounding certain stars denote that living specimens were recorded from the stations thus designated. 
The absence of a circle at a given station denotes either that dead remains alone were recorded or that 
the records do not indicate the condition of the specimens. This practice has not been followed 
except in the case of shell-bearing organisms. For others, it may be assumed that the records nearly 
always relate to living specimens.
