THE VOYAGE OF H.M.S. CHALLENGER. 
Gasteropoda (Watson, Zool. pt. 42). 
Plcurotoma {Typhlornangelia) paupera, n.sp. Obtained at no other locality. 
„ ( Spirotropis ) bracliytona , n.sp. Obtained at no other locality. 
Natica ( Amauropsis ) apora, n.sp. Obtained also at Station 169 (?). 
Scapthander mundus, n.sp. Obtained at no other locality. 
Fishes (Gunther, Zool. pt. 57). 
Mel amplifies mizolepis , n.sp. One specimen; obtained at no other locality. 
Recorded subsequently from Indian Ocean (“Investigator”). 
Cowstoma el-ongatum, n.sp. One specimen ; obtained also at Station 194a, 
360 fathoms. Recorded subsequently from Indian Ocean 
(“ Investigator ”). 
Chauliodus sloanii, Bl. Schn. One specimen ; obtained also at Stations 60, 104, 
216a, and 235. 
In addition to the foregoing, the Station-book records a Sternaspis. 
Excluding Protozoa, over 50 specimens of invertebrates and fishes were obtained 
at this Station, belonging to 43 species, of which 34 are new to science, including 
representatives of 12 new genera ; 17 of the new species and 3 new genera were 
not obtained elsewhere. 
It was observed that the stomach and intestines of all the Echini were filled with 
mud, quite the same as the top layer procured in the sounding-tube. 
WiHemoes-Suhm writes : “ The Gnathophausia taken to-day is very like 
Gnat'iophausii i yigas, the first species we obtained between Bermuda and the Azores. 
The nude differs from that species in many points, but only a very small specimen was 
obtain' d, and the carapace of the female was soft and out of shape, as the animal had 
u.v ix-en moulting. There was another small Decapod [ = Nephropsis suhmi\ differing 
from the A at acid® in the absence of the outer antennal scale and of the flagellum, and 
from the Palinurid© in the presence of three pairs of chela?, — a very interesting form 
interim diat between those two families, which we have already taken in 700 fathoms, 
off Bermuda, and which l called in my notes Nitocris [ = Nephropsis] rosea. A large 
\-t i id seemed to be most closely allied to Ncphrops differing apparently only in the 
rudimentary condition of the eyes, which were situated underneath the rostrum. The 
stalk was very short, and there was only a trace of an optical apparatus at the end on 
the inferior surface ; there were some hairs at the end of the stalk.”
