Surface Organisms. — The following species is recorded from the surface at this 
Station : — 
Copepoda (Brady, Zool. pt. 23). 
Mirada efferata, Dana. 
Willemoes-Suhm writes : “ Very successful hauls with the tow-net were taken up 
till 9.30 p.m., but after that hour very little was obtained, though the sea all around 
continued to be highly phosphorescent. Besides the small Crustacea, the phosphorescence 
was due to innumerable specimens of Pyrocystis floating everywhere in the water. 
There were young Pleuronectids somewhat larger than those got yesterday ; in one of the 
specimens one eye is more prominent than the other, though not to be called asymmetrical. 
In addition there were large numbers of Copepods, many larvae of Squillids, Lucifer , 
Zoeae, Pneumonoderma, and Cranchia .”
