THE VOYAGE OF H.M.S. CHALLENGER. 



VIII. The Red Sea. 



This lias been separated as a distinct region, since it seems to contain several 

 peculiar forms. 



Octopus vulgaris (also I. III. IV. V. VI. 

 VIL IX. X. XIIL). 



„ horridus (also VII.). 



„ macropus (also V. VI. IX. X.).

„ elongata.

IX. The Indo-Malayan Region. 



This province I regard as extending from the Red Sea eastward and northward 

 somewhat further than the Island of Formosa, and as including the Philippines, Papua 

 and all the Malay Archipelago. Probably a portion of the northern coast of Australia 

 should be added, as is done by Fischer, but of this I am not certain.
