PLATE 13 

 Figs. A-B. — Station 25, canyon head, near axis, 480 fms. 

 Fig. C. — Station 26, outer shelf, west of canyon head, 62 fms. 

 Figs. D-F. — Station 27, outer shelf, west of canyon head, 71 fms. 



A&B, Silt (cloud trailing compass indicates muddy nature of bottom); granular 

 nature of bottom (E) may be due to faecal pellets or reworked sediment clasts. 

 Tracks (probably in part crustacean) and fish (in A). 

 C, Shelly silty bottom ; two fish above bottom. 



D-F, Shelly silty sand and sandy silt; low amplitude buried ripples (best seen in D) 

 indicate current toward WNW. Shells, concave-up and partially buried, are 

 concentrated in clusters. Coelenterate (arrow) upon shell in F.
