22. Sta. 5502 (no. 42). 2 mi from Pt. Fermin light, in 49 fms. OPG 

 took 2.39 cuft of green silty sand. Nemerteans included a large Cerebra- 

 tulus (1), a small, red-banded (4), and a longitudinally striped one. 

 A sipunculid ( 1 ) , and Bra/ichiosto/iia ( 1 ) were also present, in addition 

 to those listed on the chart. Largest animal was Pherusa capulata, and 

 most conspicuous was Chlocia pinnata (320) ; Tharyx tesselata was the 

 most abundant (1700"^). Echinoderms and crustaceans were sparse or 

 absent. 



23. Sta. 5029 (no. 41). 2.95 mi from Pt. Fermin light, in 50 fms. 

 OPG took 1.76 cuft of fine greenish black silty sand with flocculent 

 debris. In addition to those listed on the chart, the sample contained Ccrc- 

 bratulus (2 large, weighing 11 grams), and another small kind (many), 

 also two kinds of sipunculids (2). The largest individual was Cerebra-
