The surface and mid-water life further out was investigated this 
season as well as last. It did not differ materially from the 
conditions found nearer the coast, but as usual there was a large 
quantity of dinoflagellates, mainly Ceratium tripos, in addition to the 
Copepoda, Cladocera, larvfe, &c. The results will be reported upon 
in another place.
