SUMMARY OF RESULTS. 
1127 
In addition, the following are recorded in the note-books : — Peridinium {tripos 
and two other species), Diatoms, green circular Algae {Halosphaera ?), small bladder-like 
organisms (ZVoc^2-7mc« ?), Coccospheres, Glohigerina, Orhulina, Pulvinulina, Acanthometrae, 
Polycystinae, Challengeridae, and compound Radiolaria, Infusoria, Medusae, Siphonophorae, 
Sagitta, Tomopteris, Aphroditacean larvae, Planarian larvae, Cypridina, Hyperids and 
other Amphipods, Euphausia, Heteropods, Pteropods and larvae, larvae of Membranipora, 
Appendicidaria. A hump-back whale followed the ship for over an hour, coursing round 
the ship several times, and turning on its back and side frequently when it came to the 
surface ; there were bunches of Cirripeds at the blow-holes, on the dorsal fin, and on some 
parts of the pectoral fins. On the 15th Globigerinse were exceedingly abundant in the 
surface-nets, and the pseudopodia were observed ramifying between the calcareous spines, 
and projecting beyond the tips of the latter, as well as forming the bubble-like expansions 
of the float. In the sarcode surrounding the Pulvinulinse were numerous small Diatoms, 
Peridinium, Coccospheres, and Infusoria.
