Depth, 2025 fathoms ; deposit, Globigerina Ooze, containing 44'68 per cent, of 
carbonate of lime (see Murray and Eenard, Deep-Sea Deposits Chall. Exp.). 
At 4.30 A.M. shortened and furled sails, and proceeded under steam. At 5.30 a.m. 
sounded in 2025 fathoms. In this, as in the last Station, the deposit, though a Globigerina 
Ooze, was of a dark brown colour, which was due to the large quantity of the peroxides 
of iron and manganese. Associated with the Foraminiferous shells were very many 
fragments of basic volcanic rocks. Some of the manganese nodules had a nucleus of 
hard black volcanic glass (sideromelan), which was surrounded by a zone of "altered 
material (palagonite). At 7 a.m. put trawl over and veered 2500 fathoms. Obtained 
serial temperatures down to 1500 fathoms. At 1 p.m. commenced heaving in trawl, 
which came up at 3 p.m. with several specimens, about a dozen manganese nodules, and 
two sharks’ teeth. Made all plain sail. The following birds were noticed : — Diomedea 
exulans (two large white ones remained near the ship, and twice or thrice took the hook, 
but were not landed on board), molly mauks {Diomedea melanoylirys ?), Procellaria 
capensis, mutton birds, several petrels rather less in size than the Cape pigeon but with 
longer wings, and a large petrel-like bird less than the molly mauk. 
Valparaiso distant at noon, 1661 miles. Made good 141 miles. Amount of current 
6 miles, direction S. 
The following species is recorded from the trawl at this Station : — 
Actiniaria (Hertwig, Zool. pt. 15). 
Corallimorphus profundus, Moseley, n.g., n.sp. One specimen ; obtained also at 
Station 300, 1375 fathoms.
