Deep Sea Zone of the Mediterranean. P. Fischer reports on the results 
of the dredgings of the French steamer ‘ Le Travailleur ’ in depths from 
550-2660 metres, partly near the South coast of France, partly between 
Oran and Gibraltar. 120 species have been collected there, but only about 
30 of them can be regarded as abyssal ; among them are several which 
have been hitherto only known as pliocene fossils, as, for example, Tro- 
phon inultilamellatus, Pleurotoma loprestiana, Columbella costulata, Rissoa 
subsoluta , Turbo rumettensis , Trochus gemmulatus and suturalis , )^imopsis 
aurita and minuta , Leda messaniensis , and some others hitherto only 
known from the Atlantic as Pholadomya loveni and Modiola lutea. The 
deep sea zone, with constant temperature of 55° F., extends in those 
parts of the Mediterranean from 250-3624 metres ; the deep sea species 
of the Mediterranean are also found in the Atlantic, but the arctic forms
