316 REPORT OF A CRUISE IN H.M.S. "RESEARCH*' ' 



long. 7° 4' W.J that is to the north-west of the Butt of Lewis, on 

 the margin of the Holtenia ground, in 374 fath. 



"'Porcupine/ 1870, Station 8, lat. 48° 13' N., long. 9° 11' W., 

 257 fath. ; Station 10, off Cape Finisterre, 91 fath., Vigo Bay ;"^ 

 Station 13, off Cape Mondego, coast of Portugal, 220 fath. ; Station 

 26, off south coast of Portugal, 364 fath. ; and in the Mediterranean, 

 off Cape de Gatt, 60 to 160 fath., and on the Adventure bank, 92 fath. 



" ' Travailleur ' Expedition, 1880. In this expedition Ehalia nux, 

 was taken many times in the Bay of Biscay off the Spanish coast. 

 My notes taken on board give me July 17th, QQ>Q metres ; July 23rd, 

 1107 to 1353 metres. 



"'Travailleur,' 1881. In this year's expedition Prof. Milne 

 Edwards reports it as again taken in the Bay of Biscay, and also in 

 the northern part of the Mediterranean, 300 metres. 



" ' Flying Fox ' and ' Research ' trawlings off the south-west 

 coast of Ireland. Profs. A. Milne Edwards and Marion courteously 

 recognise my MS. name Ehalia nux, but if that is rejected it will 

 stand as Ehalia nux., A. Milne Edwards.''

Three specimens in old shells covered by Epizanothus paguriphilus, 

 400 fath. Dr. Norman informs me that the first evidence he had 

 of the existence of this species in the Eastern Atlantic was that of 

 a single arm dredged by the " Triton" Expedition in 1882, Station 

 13, lat. 59° 51' N., long. 8° 18' W., in 570 fath. ; and this fragment 

 he was enabled positively to identify by direct comparison with 

 American examples. Its occurrence is now first recorded. He also 

 calls my attention to the fact that the species was in the same year 

 recorded by Prof. Milne Edwards (under the name Eupagurus Jacohi, 

 M. Edw.) as having been dredged off the Spanish coast by the 

 " Travailleur." Thus this recently described deep-sea Pagui-id is 

 already known to have a most extensive range — Guadaloupe, St. Lucia, 

 Martinique, N.E. America ; in the British area north-west of the 

 Butt of Lewis and off the south of Ireland, also extending southwards 

 to the coast of Spain. 



Eupagurus meticulosus, Roux. 



Several specimens in shells covered by Polythoa incrustata in 

 70 fath. 



* So labelled, but probably one of the dicdgiugs ofl' Vigo Bay.
