SUMMARYo- This sample has a mixed fauna j taken from rocky areas and 

 soft bottoms; Pyrosoma is usually pelagic. 



I W-15o Sta, 3195~55o In 200 feet, OPG took only a small sample 

 of sandstone, shale, boulders and shelly rubble. The screenings con- 

 sisted of some ophiuroids, annelids and other smaller animals. The 

 fauna is that of a rocky association, 



I W-15a, Sta. 4323-56, In 240 feet, OPG took about 4 liters of 

 shaley coarse rock and sand. The screenings consisted of about 3 l/2 

 liters of rocks penetrated by borers, v/ith attached or encrusting 

 serpulids, bryozoans and other animals, a sea whip, perhaps Stylatula 

 and others o 



The shaley rocks were penetrated by burrows harboring Saxicava 

 arc tic a . In holes or on dark sides of the rocks are attached ser- 

 pulids of Vermiliopsis with 2 kinds of species^ spirorbids of more 

 than two kinds. The rocks have projecting tubes of polychaetes, in- 

 cluding Phyllochaetopterus and Hypslcomus . 



The rocky crevices or niches harbor small chitons, Lacqueus juv- 

 eniles, bryozioans and a very flat tionicate, A small scale-worm, 

 Peisidice aspera , occurs in narrow runways, 



I W-16o Sta, 3389-=-55. In 230 feet. OPG took 0.63 cuft of coarse 

 sandy yellow-green mud. The screenings consisted of coarse sand which 

 weighed 1440 grams, including many smaller diversified animals,
