March 1 visit, and, unexpedtedly, a, tiny gasteropod. 
The richness of the shore fauna is worthy of special mention. It so 
happened that we landed at the Base pier at extreme low tide. In the 
course of a few scrapings along the rocky shore Poblete's dip-net brought 
up a variety of animals - the already (to us) common nemerteans (Amphi- 
porus), three sea-anemones resembling the North temperate Metri dium (the 
only sea-anemones af the trip it turned out), two species of amphipods, and 
two widely different and very characteristic Anarctic isopods, Serol is and 
the giant, almost 10 cm. long Gl ypt o notus a ntarcticu s. And we had a fa¬ 
vorable tide in the Arthur Harbor area, I like to think that we would have 
been as fortunate there. 
From the fish traps we got more nemertean worms than we knew what to 
do with, 2 species again of amphipods, and 7 notothoniid fishes. 
Tne building area about Base A (Goudier Island) is a rocky one but 
nowhere as rough going as on Bonaparte Point, Arthur Harbor. Port Lock- 
roy is one of the few swell-free Palmerland harbors. As to aircraft faci¬ 
lities, landings, see Capt. McDonald. 
I cannot refrain from adding that Port Lockroy is as scenically beau¬ 
tiful a place as I could spend an antarctic summer in, or a winter, too, 
for that matter - Lemaire Channel is another.
