92 EXPEDITION OF THE “ALBATROSS,” 1899-1900. 
caris, the same that was obtained in the trawl by the “ Challenger ” 
(Pl. 123) in a depth said to be two miles deep. We may safely 
assume that the majority of the Gnathophausiz and Schizopods are 
not from the bottom, but live near the surface; also that all Macrurans 
with swimming appendages are not necessarily from the bottom. Penzids 
with and without powerful swimming appendages, but long-legged types 
like Nematocarcinus, come from the bottom. Dr. Moore, who carefully 
examined the three species of Macrurans we brought up from the un- 
successful trawl, in 3088 fathoms, says they have all been found at less 
than 100 fathoms. The same may be said of the fishes collected in that 
haul. 
Station 26. Lat. 8° 52’S., long. 139° 52’ W. At 300 fathoms and to 
surface. Several red Peneids and so-called deep-sea fishes, Euphausie, 
Sergestes larvae, Annelids, and fragments of transparent pelagic Annelids, 
Sagittee, young Sternoptyx and other species of young fishes, Salpx, Aglaura, 
large bells of Diphyes, Peneeid with long antennx, the same as that ob- 
tained in haul from 830 fathoms! 
Station 27. Lat. 9° 01'S, long. 140° 04" W. At 800 fathoms and to 
surface. Fine lot of Pensids with long antenne, Scopelids, Euphausie, 
Zoe of shore Brachiurans, a fine Nemichthys! so-called deep-sea fish ; 
Leptocephalus, and three other species of small fishes; Actinize embryos, 
Tanais, Agalma bells, Diphyes, and a new genus of Diphyes with opaque 
bells, a large Pilidium measuring half an inch, Sergestes, Pandalus, a short 
Tomopteris with marked yellow patches at the base of the flappers. 
Station 30. Lat. 10° 29 S., long. 141° 52’ W. At 300 fathoms and to 
surface. Two species of phosphorescent fishes, a young Diodon, Euphausia,

small Siphonophore, Agalma bells, transparent Annelids and the large 
Pilidium again, Sagittaee, Tomopteris, Alciopa, and other species of worms, 
Salpe, Gasteropods in the veliger stage.

surface. Five species of fishes, Kuphausia, three species of large Copepods,
