Besides these we caught at Station 48 an Alepocephalus and the new form Bathymicrops regis (see Fig. 305), which may both be pelagic. Excepting the Hariotta, which has only been taken at some- what lesser depths (Station 35, 2603 metres), all these species. Fig. 305. Bathymicrops regis, , Nat. size, n cm. belong to the genera recorded by previous expeditions from the abyssal plain. Of the nine species, three \Halosauropsis macrochir, Macrurus armatus, and Synaphobranchus pinnatus) have previously been taken in other oceans. Of special interest is the fact that M. armatus has been found in. so many new. Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have bee
