Of the 52 stomachs examined 19 were empty, the 

 remaining 33 being accounted for in the following notes : — 



Mollusca were found in 18 stomachs, or fully 54 %, and 

 consisted of Mactra, Scrobicularia, Philine, Pecten, Nu- 

 cula and Solen. 



Echinoderms were found in 7 stomachs, or fully 21 %, 

 and consisted chiefly of Ophioglypha, 1 stomach only 

 containing EcMnocyamus pusillus. 



Annelida were found in 6 stomachs, or fully 18 %. 



Crustacea were found in 6 stomachs, fully 18 %, and 

 consisted of Portunus, Corystes, Pagurus and Crangon. 



Last year's report gives the result of an examination of 

 37 stomachs from which it will be seen that Mollusca, 

 Crustacea, Annelida, and Echinoderms were the chief food, 

 in the order given.
