SUMMARY OF RESULTS; 521 
Macrurus armatus, Hector. Eleven specimens ; obtained also at Stations 146, 
147, 157, 246, and 271. 
G-onostoma microdon, n.sp. Two specimens ; for distribution see Station 23. 
Stomias boa (Risso). One specimen ; obtained at no other locality by the 
Challenger. Recorded from Pacific and Mediterranean. 
Nearly all the specimens of Macrurus had their air-bladders distended and protruding 
from the mouth. 
In addition to the foregoing, the following are recorded in the Station-book : — Another 
Sponge, Peltogaster (in pouch of Hymenaster), another species of Anomura (Galathe aVj, 
Caridid and Peneid shrimps, and Cephalopod. 
Excluding Protozoa, about 70 specimens of invertebrates and fishes were obtained 
at this Station, belonging to about 45 species, of which 33 are new to science, 
including representatives of 13 new genera ; 16 of the new species and 3 new genera 
were not obtained elsewhere. 
Willemoes-Suhm writes : “ In the breeding cavity of a Hymenaster was a parasitical 
Rhizocephalid, showing a large sucker and a flat body filled with eggs. I could not find 
an anus, and am not quite sure to what genus it should be referred, but I think it is most 
nearly allied to Clistosaccus, Liljeborg, the only Rhizocephalid in which there is no anus. 
According to Gerstaecker, Peltogastridae have only been found in the abdomen of Decapoda, 
so that this specimen may probably have been detached and fallen into the open breeding 
cavity of the Hymenaster. Among the Schizopods were : a female of Petalophthalmus 
inermis \ = Boreomysis scyphops ], a new species of Thysanopoda, a genus of Euphausidse 
distinguished by the presence of all the pereiopoda, the last of which are rather small and 
rudimentary, and by eight pairs of lateral accessory eyes ; only small species (32 mm. in 
length) were hitherto known from the surface of the Atlantic, but this species from the deep 
sea is much larger (50 mm. in length), is not in the least transparent, but of the ordinary 
consistency of the red deep-sea shrimps. It presents all the characters of Euphausia, 
but whether the lateral eyes are present is not yet quite certain. There were several 
specimens of Chalaraspis ungnifera [ = Eucopia australis ], a Schizopod common in the 
deep sea, and a specimen of Chalaraspidum, n.gen., characterised by shorter legs and a 
much longer carapace, which extends over the third abdominal segment and is extremely 
soft. An Isopod of the family Munopsidae seems to be very characteristic of the deep 
sea in the Antarctic, as it was taken in nearly every haul since we left the Cape ; a blind 
specimen was taken to-day with all its legs entire but with broken antennae. There were 
two species of Galathea, a Caridid Decapod belonging to a species not hitherto taken, 
and a Peneid which we have often caught in the deep sea,” 
Station 158.
