SUMMARY OF RESULTS. 
431 
day petrels, terns, prions, albatrosses, penguins, a shoal of grampus or whales, and a 
seal were seen. 
From the above it will be seen that on December 26 and 27, 1873, the Challenger 
sounded and dredged in the vicinity of Marion and Prince Edward Islands (for description 
of the islands see Norr. Chcdl. Exp., vol. i. pp. 291-301). Four hauls with the dredge 
were taken on the 26th — twice in 50 fathoms, once in 75 fathoms, once in 100 fathoms 
(Station 144 a); and on the 27th three hauls with the dredge were taken in 85, 140, 
and 310 fathoms (Stations 145 and 145 a). In the following list of species recorded in
