Remarks. Bergstrom has well figured the variations in the elytra of this very abundant 

 Antarctic species. He treats Willey's H. spinosa var. lagiscoides as a separate species. 

 I have included examples of Willey's variety within H. spinosa. 



Harmothoe exanthema (Grube).

 51° 03' 00" S, 64° 59' 00" W. 132-131 m. Gear OTC. Bottom: fine dark sand. One specimen. 



St. WS 88. 6. iv. 27. 54" 00' 00" S, 64° 57' 30" W. From 54° 00' 00" S, 65° 00' 00" W to 

 54° 00' 00" S, 64° 55' 00" W. 118 m. Gear OTC. Bottom: sand, shell and stone. Five specimens. 



Remarks. I have nothing to add to what is already known of this species. The 

 elytra have large stalked tubercles surmounted by a papilla, which is sometimes absent. 

 The ventral bristles are both unidentate and bidentate. 



Harmothoe anderssoni, Bergstrom. 



Bergstrom, 1916, p. 286, pi. iii, fig. 6; pi. iv, figs. 8-10. 



St. 144. 5. i. 27. Off mouth of Stromness Harbour, South Georgia. From 54° 04' S, 36° 27' W 

 to 53° 58' S, 36° 26' W. 155-178 m. Gear N 4-T. Bottom: green mud and sand. One specimen. 



Remarks. This specimen corresponds closely to Bergstrom 's description. The elytra 

 are ciliated and have tubercles with jagged tips. Some of the upper ventral bristles have 

 scales on the blade as well as toothed edges: they are unidentate. 



This is a quite different species from H. hirsuta, Johnson, in which the elytra are 

 areolated and the ventral bristles bidentate.
