j spicules, Diatoms. 
Jlinerals.

angular ; plagioclase, quartz, 
pyroxene, hornblende, mica, 
magnetite, pumice, altered 
volcanic particles, glauconite. 
Fine Washings. 
Additional Observations. 
(23 '69 %), green amorphous 
matter, fine mineral particles, 
and siliceous fragments. 
(3-00%), Sponge spicules, 
j Eadiolaria, Textularidae, casts 
j of calcareous organisms. 
, (4 '00 %), Sponge spicules, 
j Eadiolaria, arenaceous Textu- 
J laridie, glauconitic casts. 
(30-00 %), m. di. O'lS mm., 
angular ; felspar, plagioclase, 
augite, n)agnetite, volcanic 
glass splinters, glauconite. 
(10-82 %), many fine mineral 
particles, a little amorphous 
matter, and a few siliceous 
remains. 
After treatment with acid, there remain a good many 
pale and dark green casts of the Foraminifera and 
other shells. 
(30-00 %), m. di. 0-10 mm., 
angular ; felspar, plagioclase, 
quartz, hornblende, augite, 
mica, magnetite, glassy vol- 
canic particles, glauconite. 
(15-60 %), many fine mineral 
particles, a little amorphous 
matter, and a few siliceous 
remains. 
The deposit is similar in every respect to that obtained 
at the previous station. Pteropods are fewer. A great 
many casts of the organisms remain after treatment 
with acid. 
1(3-00%), Sponge spicules and 
I Diatoms. 
!(5'00%), Sponge spicules, 
I Eadiolaria, Astrorhizidae, 
' Haplophragmium, Diatoms. 
(5-00 %), Sponge spicules, a few 
fragments of Diatoms. 
(10-00%), Sponge spicules, 
Eadiolaria, Rhizammina, 
Lituolidae, Clavulina com- 
I munis, Diatoms. 
(25-00 %), m. di. 0'08 mm., 
angular ; felspar, plagioclase, 
hornblende, augite, glassy 
volcanic particles more or 
less altered, quartz. 
(10-00 %), m. di. 0-13 mm., 
angular ; quartz, plagioclase, 
felspar, hornblende, augite, 
magnetite, palagonite, pum- 
ice. 
(25-00 %), m. di. 0-50 mm., 
rounded and angular; quartz, 
plagioclase, felspar, pyroxene, 
hornblende, epidote, magnetic 
particles, glauconite. 
(5'00 %), m. di. 0-20 mm., 
angular ; quartz, a great num- 
ber of small particles of brown 
vesicular volcanicglas.s, plagio- 
clase, augite, manganese grains, 
magnetite. 
(72-00 %), fine amorphous 
matter of a blue colour, fine 
mineral particles, and a few 
remains of siliceous organ- 
isms. 
(62-89 %), fine amorphous and 
clayey matter, minute mineral 
particles, and some siliceous 
remains. 
(16-48 %), fine mineral particles, 
a small quantity of amorphous 
matter, a few fine fragments 
of Sponge spicules, one or two 
fragments of Diatoms. 
(85-00 %), much green-brown 
clayey and amorphous matter, 
some fine mineral particles, 
and minute remains of silice- 
ous organisms. 
The deposit was obtained from the anchor. A number q 
of small coprolite-like bodies are present. 
In the trawl were two or three rounded nodules of pumice, 
from 4 to 1 inch (12 to 25 mm.) in diameter, a few 
cinders, and fragments of wood and leaves. The 
nodules and pieces of wood were overgrown with 
Serpula. In addition to these there were a dead 
Coral {Bathyactis) and a Gasteropod. 
The deposit was obtained from the anchor and consists 
of fragments of shells, &c., cemented together by mud. 
It is curious to note that although the surface waters 
were full of Diatoms none or only a few fragments 
were observed in the deposit from the bottom. The 
felspar is sometimes kaolinised. 
When brought up in the sounding tube the mud was 
reddish at the top and of a slate-blue colour at the 
bottom. Small pellets of amorphous matter are 
observed in the larger washings of the residue, pro- 
bably excreta of Echinoderms. 
(3 -00 %), a few Eadiolaria, 
I Sponge spicules, and Diatoms.

! 
(5-00 %), m. di. 0-06 mm., 
angular; very small particles, 
among which felspar and 
augite predominate, quartz, 
glas.sy volcanic particles, 
lumps of disintegi-ating 
volcanic matter black and 
somewhat opaque, probably 
volcanic matter altering into 
clayey substances, glauconite. 
(88-78 %), much green clayey 
and amorphous matter, many 
fine mineral particles, and a 
few remains of siliceous 
organisms. 
The calcareous organisms are fragmentary. 
A small quantity of deposit was obtained from the 
stomach of a Holothurian. It was green in colour 
and contained broken shells of all kinds, Echinoderm 
spines, many varieties of Foraminifera, but no Globi- ' 
gerina or Pulvinulina.
