and K. Banse. Samples were collected with a 0.1-m? van Veen grab 
and washed through a screen with square meshes of 1 mm side length. 
The formalin-preserved animals were separated from the residue in 
the laboratory under slight magnification. The nomenclature follows 
Hartman (1959, 1965b) except as noted otherwise. A reference to 
other descriptions is omitted if the species is included in Berkeley and 
Berkeley (1948, 1952). All colors refer to formalin-preserved material. 
Drawings illustrating new species are made from holotypes if not 
stated otherwise. Station numbers are given only for new species 
and new records. A list of all species in our collection with specimen 
numbers per station and dates of sampling is contained in Lie (in 
press). A set of identified species is deposited in the U.S. National 
Museum. 
The station characteristics are given below (from Lie, in press). 
The mean depth is calculated from seven quarterly visits (this is 
given on the labels of the material in the U.S. National Museum). 
The depth range, however, refers to the recordings of those visits 
when polychaetes were identified. Quarterly samples were studied 
for stations 2 and 7, whereas for the other stations polychaetes were 
identified only from winter and spring collections. Sediment was 
subsampled for particle size analysis from about one-third of the grab 
samples from the winter and spring collections. The average results 
are presented below (‘‘clay” refers to particles smaller than 0.0031 
mm, “silt”? to particles between 0.0031 and 0.0625 mm in diameter, 
and “‘eravel” to particles larger than 2.0 mm).
