SUMMARY OF RESULTS. 
587 
Depth, 2600 fathoms; deposit, Red Clay, containing 19 ’13 per cent, of carbonate 
of lime (see Murray and Renard, Deep-Sea Deposits Chall. Exp.). 
Weather very fine. At 1.30 p.m. stopped and sounded in 2600 fathoms. Took 
serial temperatures down to 1500 fathoms, and specimens of water down to 400 fathoms. 
The carbonic acid was determined in water from 5 fathoms, and amounted to 
51 T milligrammes per litre. Cutter away with naturalists for surface collecting. 
At 5 p.m. completed observations, and proceeded under steam. 
Cape Farewell distant at noon, 735 miles. Made good 148 miles. Amount of 
current 14 miles, direction S. 60° E. 
Foraminifera (Brady, Zool. pt. 22). — The following species of Foraminifera were 
observed in the deposit from this Station ; the pelagic species, which make up about 
52 per cent, of the carbonate of lime present in the deposit, are marked thus x : —

Surface Organisms. — The sea was very smooth, and Murray from a boat collected 
many specimens of Foraminifera, Collozoum inerme and other Radiolaria, Infusoria, 
Medusae, Siphonophorae, Ctenophorse. very long specimens of Alciopci with intensely 
black spots, Sagitta, Copepods, Hyperict, Euphausia, and Salpia. There were great 
numbers of minute, quite transparent, jelly-masses, which on examination were found to 
enclose a number of Coccospheres and occasionally Rhabdospheres, with other small 
foreign bodies — supposed by Murray to be the Myxobrachicc of Haeckel; numberless 
Coccospheres and a few Rhabdospheres were also found in the stomachs of the Scilpas. A 
very long, ribbon-like, animal of a golden green colour — supposed to be a Cestum — was 
observed.
