Archive image from page 474 of The Danish Ingolf-expedition (1899-1953). The Danish Ingolf-expedition danishingolfex4apt1a2daniuoft Year: 1899-1953 Fig. 27. Part of the actiual and abactinal side of the test of Sfierosoma Grimaldi; 27™™. The genital and ocular plates are already separated by small anal plates, except the ocular plate III which is still in contact with the adjoining genital plates. In younger stages the apical plates will undoubtedly form a closed ring. The genital pores have not yet appeared; in a specimen of 40''' diameter from the Faeroe Channel they have appeared, JDut the genital organs are still very small. The ocular plates are rather large, with a pecuHar radiating striation in the outer part. The anal area is closely covered by numerous small plates, those at the outer edge being somewhat larger; the inner ones are narrow and elongated, radially arranged rotmd the anal opening. — The gills have not yet ajpeared in this specimen, but in the .specimen of 40''' they are present, though still very .small. This species was taken by the Thor> at 62° 57'Lat. N. 19' 58'Long. W. 957 M. in 1903 and at 61° 15' Lat. N. 9° 35' Long. W. 900 M. in 1904.
