ΟΝ SOUTH-EUROPEAN MARINE INVERTEBRATA, 291 
30th of May. Becalmed between Cape Bon and the island of Pantellaria, 
captured fifteen turtles; obtained from them two specimens of Coronula and 
several groups of Anatifa levis; also several specimens of a species of crab. 
A fish (Remora ?) attached to bottom of the vessel near the bow, 18 inches 
under water. In form something like a dog fish, about 12 inches long: at- 
tempted to catch it from the boat; but it immediately let go its hold and 
dived, leaving a black mark upon the copper where it had adhered. 
Obtained in the tow-net a specimen of a small Hyalza, several of Atlanta, 
of Creseis spinigera, and two other species. N.B. I found after sunset to 
be the most favourable time for catching Pteropoda, &c. 
Several Velelle ; a turtle was seen to eat one. 
31st of May. Calm, 6 to 8 miles from Pantellaria, attempted to dredge, 
but got no bottom with 360 fathoms. 
Ist of June. Calm, near Pantellaria ; not being able to get bottom from the 
vessel, went off in the boat, about 200 yards from shore; obtained bottom in
