2 BULLETIN: MUSEUM OF COMPARATIVE ZOÓLOGY. 
was first found by the “ Albatross,” but its publication has been antici- 
pated by the description of an immature example by Dr. H. Fischer in 
1896. There are six species described as new. I have also proposed a 
new genus (Pyroteuthis) for the Lnoploteuthis margaritifera of Rüppell. 
In the preparation of the Plates I have utilized a number of water- 
color drawings made on the expedition by Mr. Agassiz and Mr. Magnus 
Westergren whilst the animals were still fresh and the colors of life 
retained. It would be well if this practice had been followed on other 
expeditions, as the appearance of Cephalopoda changes very markedly 
after preservation in alcohol. The other figures are based upon my own 
sketches, carefully made to scale, and in making the finished drawings 
I have had the assistance of Miss Mabel B, Ede, Miss E. R. Dust, and 
Dr. J. H. Ashworth. 
In conclusion I have to express my gratitude to Mr. Agassiz for the 
opportunity of studying such an interesting collection. 
I subsequently received a smaller collection made by the “ Albatross ” 
during a cruise among the Pacific Islands in 1899-1900, which contained 
thirteen species, one of which was new to science and forms the type of 
anew genus, Cirrobrachiwm.
