The tow-nets at the surface and down to 150 or 200 fathoms yielded : — Ctenophorse, 
Tomopteris, small Copepods, Amphipods, Tsopods, many Euphausise (some with Distomum 
Bopyrus parasitic), Pleuropus and Diacria [= Cavolinid] and other small Pteropods, 
many Salpae, small Scopelids. Most of these animals appeared to feed on Peridinium, 
Coccospheres, and other minute organisms, for their stomachs were filled with them. 
The tow-net at the weights showed no signs of having touched the bottom, and contained 
several varieties of Challengeridse, while one of the tow-nets at the trawl had very little 
deposit in it and brought up a specimen of Sternoptyx.
