C r 
2.00 p.m. Tide beginning to flood, tidal flats. Shore collecting. Rocky, 
sand beaches intervening,rocks fairly large, smaller ones in one or two places. 
This applies to most of Island, on west side, going round to north was mud 
flat, only place where Hepatus and Crangon were found. 
Lydgia common everywhere but hard to catch. Xanthids everywhere, two little 
Galathea-like critters from soft bluish star, the large slender rayed one. 
Amphipods washed from sea weeds collected around island, one or two bunches 
picked up on beach. 
Callinectes from N.E. section north of Brown's place on warm sandy flats, 
shallow between boulders and along seaweed. One small Portunld, yellow brown, 
from mud flats. (Callinectes ornatus, juv.—Hote by M.J.R.)

Sat., Aug. 22, 1925. 9:15 - 10:30 a.m., low tide. In pool foot wide, 
18 inch deep, 3 feet long. Temp, of botton 23 >C. Sand beach between rocks.

A boy watching me pulled an Eriphia gonagra claw from rock crevice, same one 
in which pool was, but he failed to get crab. 
Everything saved, but small representation of life on rocks by Conto de 
Rio. Didn't have time to collect more. 
Small fishes from the Rio, a little stream running through sand 1 but 
probably only brackish water slough cut off at low tide; didn't seem to have 
any current, but I'll have to go back to look at it. 
Crab came from little pool between two large rocks, as did most of other 
stuff, worm tubes, bryozoa, etc. 
Green algae all over rocks, amphipods from them and bryozoa. Lydgia 
everywhere, I think I have several of largest; pool had a temp, of 23° C., or 
maybe a shade over. Water sample taken of pool.
