5. Sta. 2788 (no. 14). South of Redondo Heach, in 9.5 fms. OPG 

 took 1.32 cuft of coarse gray sand and shell, with dead shells of Olivclla, 

 Pecten, Cadulus, Nassarius, Dendraster occupied by sipunculids, and 

 solitary tunicates. The sample contained many worm-like animals, with 

 the most numerous being Golfingia (sipunculid) , Pisione remota (50), 

 cirratulids and hesionids. Crustaceans included several kinds of amphi- 

 pods with 34 specimens and a caprellid, and an anemone (1). Largest 

 individual was Alarphysa mortenseni. 



Sub 5. Sta. 2470 (no. 44). 1.4 mi E of Pt. Fermin light, in 10 fms. 

 OPG took 1.95 cuft of black sandy mud with foul odor. Most abundant 

 were many kinds of polychaetes, like those in adjacent stations, with un- 

 usual abundance of Lumhrineris spp., Streblosoma crassibranchia, and 

 an enteropneust, possibly Spenge/ia sp. 



6. Sta. 4805 (no. 28). 1.8 mi from Pt. Vicente light, in 10 fms. 

 OPG took 1.8 cuft of Chaetopterus-Diopntra ornata association in sand 

 with red algae. A few small IHarcnactis (anemone), a large speckled 

 gray nemertean, several smaller ones, and two kinds of sipunculids, ac- 

 companied by large numbers of polychaetes and Lima dehiscens, com- 

 prised most of the sample. Crustaceans were present with a few amphi- 

 pods, a Caprella, and Hcterocrypta occidcntalis (3). The largest and 

 most conspicuous animals were Chaetopteriis variopcdatus, Lima dehis- 

 cens, Chone sp., Flabelligera commcnsalis, Spiophanes missionensis and 

 Tharyx multifiilis. Echinoderms were absent. 



7. Sta. 4856 (near no. 28). 2.9 mi from Pt. Vicente light, in 10 

 fms. OPG took 0.81 cuft of fine olive-green sand and rocks with small 

 white attached sponges. In addition to those on the chart, the lot con- 

 tained a small white anemone (2), a large Cerebratulus rubra and a 

 small nemertean (10), Glottidia albida (1), Terchratalia sp. (5), ten 

 kinds of amphipods {11), two cumaceans, an isopod (15), an ostracod. 

 an elbow crab (2) and a spider crab, a pycnogonid (6), and a large dark 

 brown enteropneust ( 1 ) . The largest species were Burchia redondoensis 

 and Pista disjuncta, the most abundant Paraonis gracilis (50"^), Priono- 

 spio malmgreni (45), and Ophiothrix spiculata (29).
