140 CATALOGUE OF THE ECHINODEEMATA OF 



and Durham coast ; so far as my experience goes, more fre- 

 quently on the latter, where it generally occurs in deeper water 

 than the preceding species.

Not common, but occasionally taken with E. miliaris, G. H. 



I have met with a few specimens on the Northumberland coast 

 in deep water with a moderately rough bottom : some have also 

 occurred off Seaham under similar conditions. It is rather apt 

 to be mistaken for E. miliaris. 



4. E. Drobachiensis, Muller. (Silky-spined Egg-urchin.)

From the boats, Cullercoats, J. A. 



Very common inside the Fame Islands, associated with E. 

 esculentus. In 1863 we dredged a large number from this 

 ground ; but in 1864, although we spent several hours in at- 

 tempting to dredge over the same spot (which we thought we 

 had marked), we utterly failed to hit it. We got a few speci- 

 mens amongst our mixed dredgings, but only in the one spot 

 alluded to did we find them in quantity. I have not taken it 

 on the Durham coast.
