XLVIII., 281.) 100 DR WILLIAM EVANS HOYLE ON THE A drawing of the radula is given in fig. 9, as its form differs in a few details fromthat shown by SMITH.*. \ FIG. 9.—Radula of OnychoteutTiis ingens [H 925], x Histioteuthis sp. juv. Locality.—Station 468, South Atlantic. Lat. 39° 48 S., long. 2° 33 E. 29thApril 1904. 2645 fathoms. One specimen [H 940]. Thespecimen is somewhat damaged. The interbrachial membrane is slightly devel-oped. One arm shows the pigmented organ at the extremity, which, so far as I am aware,is characteristic (in this family) of the genus Histioteuthis, although it is not alludedto in the diagnosis either of PFEFFER or CHUN. In many respects it resembles theChallenger specimen called Histiopsis atlantica, which was also from the same region,but is pale and semi-transparent, whilst that was opaque and dull reddish in colour.
