The dredge was used without bag. 
It came up with about a pint of rounded and angular stones, — 
sandstone, gneiss, mica-schist, diorite, — the same as those taken at 
Station 2.

Concluding Remarks. 
The dredgings and trawlings during the “ Knight Errant’s ” cruise 
have, according to the above lists and the supplementary reports 
which follow, given us 16 new species and one new genus. 
The trawlings and dredgings in the warm area (stations 4, 5, 6, 
and 7) yielded 71 species. The single trawling in the cold area 
(station 8) yielded 47 species. 
It is a somewhat remarkable fact that in these dredgings there are 
only 2 species common to both areas, viz., Haploops setosa and 
Nym/phon stroemii excluding of course the foraminifera. 
It will be interesting to learn if the same remarkable difference in 
the fauna on either side of the Wyville Thomson Ridge will be shown 
by more extended dredgings and trawlings during the present season 
in H.M.S. “ Triton.” 
The dredgings on the ridge did not yield many animals, and these 
resemble rather those of the warm, than of the cold area.
