Of other Myopsidae the genera Sepiola, Rossia, Loligo, and Sepia have been captured only in trawls along the bottom. The same remark applies to the genera Octopus and Cii'voteutJiis, belonging to the Octopoda. A large new species, named by Chun Octopus {Polypus) lothei, was taken in the trawl south of the Canaries in 2600 metres of water. Interesting pelagic forms of Octopoda were also met with ; for instance : Treinoctopus, Eledonella, Bolitcsna, Optsthotcut/ns, Vampyi-oteutJiis, and CirrotJiaunia. The two last mentioned are probably the most interesting. Vainpyroteuthis infernalis, a fantastic deep-sea form, had previously been taken by the. Fig. 444. Cirrothauma murrayi, Chun. About half nat. size. (From Chun.) " ; CirrotJiaunia murrayi (Fig. 444) is a new species taken at great depths in our northern section. It is as fragile as a Ctenophore, and of a jelly-like consistency, its structure being exceedingly interesting and unlike that of any previously known squid. It is, besides, the only blind squid known, and has therefore been exhaustively treated by Chun in his report on our material. I. CEPHALOPODA DECAPODA A.
