336 ALLAN HANCOCK PACIFIC EXPEDITIONS VOL. 19 



7. Sta. 3605 (near no. 238). (^PG took 0.25 cuft of green mud and 

 sand, in 100 fms. All animals were small and inconspicuous. The most 

 abundant were brown ostracods. with more than 100, and A tnphipholis 

 sqitainata, with 15 specimens. 



8. Sta. 2367 (no. 240), in 230 fms. OPG took 0.5 cuft of gray-green 

 sandy mud and gravel, with dead Cadnlus shells. 1 he largest species was 

 Travisia pupa, the most abundant and conspicuous Chlocia p'lnnaia, with 

 51 specimens. Crustaceans were represented by amphipods (7), tanaids 

 (2), and many ostracods. 



Sta. 2344 (no. 252), in 210 fms. OPG took 0.37 cuft sandy mud, 

 gravel, rocks, with animals. 1 he sediments contained many Rhabdatnina 

 and disklike foraminiferans. The most conspicuous individual was a bris- 

 sopsid. Other animals are those characteristic of the slope. 



Willow Cove 



1. Sta. 2121 (no. 238), in Z2 fms. OPG dropped twice, recovered 

 1.26 cuft of sand, mud, dead Laqueiis shells, a large white sponge, large 

 asteroid, solitary corals, a surface echinoid, mollusks (not identified), 

 numerous crustaceans (not identified), with small shrimps, crabs, many 

 amphipods and some isopods. The polychaetes were represented by more 

 than 39 species and many specimens. The species are those characteristic 

 of the shelf fauna. 



2. Sta. 2853 (no. 238), in 35-38 fms. Sigsbee trawl, in rocky bottom, 

 took rocks, sand, silt, siliceous sponge, dead brachiopod {Laqueus and 

 Terebratalia) shells. Coelenterates included two or more sea pens, two 

 small colonies of hydrocorals, a few solitary corals, several nemerteans, a 

 sipunculid, several polyclads, small crustaceans, especially tanaids (38), 

 amphipods (7), a few isopods, stalked barnacle, ScalpcUiiin attached to 

 tubes of Fhyl/ochaetoptcrus, and many different kinds of polychaetes. 

 1 he most abundant, Anaitides niadeirensis, had 30 specimens. 



3. Sta. 2637 (no. 238), in 40 fms. Campbell grab took 1.14 cuft of 

 gray sandy mud with white shelly debris. The largest species was Mol- 

 pndia intermedia, and the most abundant A mphiodia digitata (93). Also 

 present were a ceriantharian (1), Gloitidia albida (1), crustaceans rep- 

 resented by many amphipods and an epinebalian (2). 



4. Sta. 2638 (no. 238), in 40 fms. OPG took 0.93 cuft of gray sand 

 and mud. The largest species were Lytechiniis anainesus (urchin) and a 

 red nemertean. Most abundant were Amphiodia urtica (109) and cir- 

 ratulid polychaetes.
