COPEPODS GATHERED BY ALBATROSS—WILSON 171 
tained from these 15 Albatross stations. Though quite abundant at 
30 stations in the Monaco plankton, only six specimens were found 
in the Siboga plankton and three in the Carnegie plankton. These 
differences suggest that it may be seasonal in its distribution.

Stations 4700; 4707; 5120; 5227. Found at 18 stations in the Mon- 
aco plankton but not present in the other lists. 
Genus BATHYCALANUS Sars, 1905 
BATHYCALANUS RICHARDI Sars 
Bathycalanus richardi Sars, Bull. Mus. Océanogr. Monaco, No. 26, p. 8, 1905a; 
Rés. camp. sci. Albert de Monaco, No. 69, p. 16, pl. 4; pl. 5, figs. 1-6, 1925. 
Stations 4707; 4765; 4810; 5120; H. 3789. Found at 13 stations 
in the Monaco plankton but not appearing in the other lists. This 
is one of the largest of the free-swimming copepods. It usually re- 
mains at considerable depths, thus entirely escaping surface tows, 
and can be captured only in a deep vertical haul. 
Genus BATHYPONTIA Sars, 1905 
BATHYPONTIA ELONGATA Sars 
Bathypontia elongata Sars, Bull. Mus. Océanogr. Monaco, No. 40, p. 24, 1905b; 
Rés. camp. sci. Albert de Monaco, No. 69, p. 356, pl. 126, 1925. 
Stations 4679; 4681; 4687; 4717; 4719; 4740. Established by Sars as 
the type species of a new genus in his preliminary report on the Monaco 
plankton. His specimens were found in the tow at 21 Atlantic sta- 
tions but the species does not appear in any of the other plankton 
lists. The specimens which he identified from the 6 Albatross sta- 
tions constitute the first record from the Pacific.

Bathypontia minor Sars, Bull. Inst. Océanogr. Monaco, No. 101, p. 27, 1907; Rés. 
camp. sci. Albert de Monaco, No. 69, p. 360, pl. 127, figs. 12-18, 1925. 
Stations 5120; 5320. Established upon two female specimens taken 
singly at two North Atlantic stations in the Monaco plankton. In 
this Albatross plankton also only a single female was found at each 
of the above stations. The species does not appear in any of the 
other lists. These are the first specimens reported after the original 
discovery, and they constitute the first record from the Pacific. The
