WS 472. TS 663. Fig. I, E I. 



12. xi. 29. 59° 42' 30" S, 58° 01' W. Sounding, 3580 m. 



A small quantity of dark brown mud giving a residue of fine sand, abundant Radiolaria and 

 diatoms, with few but varied Foraminifera. Spirolocammina tenuis, Ammomarginulina ensis, Proteo- 

 mina tuhuJata, ReopJiax micaceus, Spiroplectamminafiliformis, S. subcylindrica, Bigenerina minutissima, 

 and Haplophragmoides nitidus were among the interesting and rarer forms obtained. 



WS 474. TS 648*, 649*. Fig. I, E II. 



i3.xi. 29. 61° 03' S, 56° 42' W. Sounding, 2813 m. 



About 40 cc. of dark grey plastic mud yielding a residue of dark grey sand, with a few larger 

 grains and pebbles, many Radiolaria but few Foraminifera. Haplophragmoides subglobostis was very 

 common, and there were many fragments of large Arenacea not identifiable with certainty. Although 

 there is a fairly long list of smaller species it contains few forms of outstanding interest. 



WS 475. TS 644*. Fig. I, E II. 



14. xi. 29. 61° 48' S, 55° 51' W. Sounding, 1047 m. 



About 60 cc. of fine brown mud which yielded a residue of 20 cc. when washed on 200-mesh 

 silk gauze. The residue was dark grey volcanic sand and ash, and contained too much pumice to be 

 elutriated. Organisms of any kind were scanty, but Miliainmina arenacea and M. oblonga were fre- 

 quent, and a broken specimen of Reophax nodulosus 7 mm. long was observed. 



WS 476. TS 666*. Fig. II, G I. 



14. xi. 29. 62° i6' S, 58° 18' W. Sounding, 542 m. 



About 30 cc. of tenacious dark mud gave a residue of 8 cc. fine black and white sand grains, 

 some diatoms and a few Foraminifera. Nonion depressidus was the only species occurring with any 

 frequency, most others being represented by one or two specimens only. There were no outstanding 

 rarities.

16. xi. 29. 62° 32' 30" S, 57° 55' W. Sounding, 1523 m. 



About 30 cc. of tenacious dark brown mud which, when washed on 200-mesh silk gauze, yielded 

 less than i cc. residue of fine sand, diatoms and numerous Foraminifera. Various species of Mili- 

 ammina, Trochammhia bradyi, T. malovensis and T. globigeriniformis were very common. Among 

 rarer species were Proteonina tubulata and Vanhoeffenella gaussi. 



WS 480. TS 656. Fig. II, H I. 



16. xi. 29. 62° 51' 30" S, 57° 47' 30" W. Sounding, 740 m. 



About 30 cc. of tenacious dark brown mud, which resisted repeated washing and drying, and 

 had eventually to be brushed through a sieve. Residue mainly diatoms, some sand grains and a few 

 pauperate Foraminifera. Various species of Miliammina were frequent, and among the more inter- 

 esting rarities was a single specimen of ElpJndium oweniatium. The only common organism was the 

 ribbon-like object referred to under Rhizammina algaeformis (see No. 129). 



WS 481. TS 658. Fig. II, H I. 



16. xi. 29. 62° 59' S, 57° 28' W. Sounding, 453 m. 



Less than i cc. of muddy sand yielding a residue of sand, shell debris, diatoms and an interesting 

 series of Foraminifera, mostly represented by one or two specimens. The only species occurring with 

 any frequency were Nonionella iridea, common, Globigerina dutertrei, Cibicides refiilgens, Cassididina 

 crassa and Trochartimina nana, all frequent. Among the rarities were Turritellella shoneana, T. 

 laevigata and Patellina corrugata.

 and 1 00-0 m. 



The bottom sample (a) consisted of about 20 cc. dark muddy sand, with a residue of pebbles,
