XII. — Reply to Dr. E. P. Wright's Observations on Dredging. 

 To the Editors of the Annals and Magazine of Natural History. 



Gentlemen, 



The remarks of Dr. Wright, in this month's Number of the 

 1 Annals,' on what he is pleased to term the " accidental " dis- 

 covery by me of starfishes normally living in the deeper 

 abysses of the ocean, are so far incorrect that I must beg to 

 be permitted to reply to them.
