Abstract
DURING the present season, as in 1881, the headquarters of the U. S. Fish Commission were at Wood's Holl, Mass.The organization of the party was nearly the same as last year.*The special object, this year, was to continue tqe exploration of the sea-bottom, and its fauna beneath the edge of the Gulf Stream, which had been so successfully carried on during the two previous seasons.Owing to the unusual delay of the government appropriations, our work was delayed about a month, in the best part of the season, for we could not begi n our dredging until August.Unfavorable weather and other causes afterward prevented us from making more than five trips to• the Gulf Stream slope this year.But these were very successful.One trip, o()cupying three days, was also made to the region east of Cape Cod.On this trip very cold bottom• water was• found at moderate depths.It extended southward the known range of a number of northerll species, previously unknown on this part of our coast, but did not reveal any new forms.Among the species of most interest taken on this occasion, are the following: several examples of Urticina multicorm•s V. (of which only one specimen was known previously), 55 to 90 fathoms; Porania spinulosa V., large, 90 fath., sta.1088;
