. Discovery reports. Discovery (Ship); Scientific expeditions; Ocean; Antarctica; Falkland Islands. CAMPTOPLITES 463 Station distribution. Not represented in the Discovery collections. Geographical distribution. Off Valparaiso, 3953 m.; off Crozet Islands, 2928 m. (Busk). Busk's figures were drawn from the material from Challenger St. 147 (Crozet Islands) which must be taken as the type. The slide figured by Busk is no. 284. Ovicells are abundant in this material, but were not figured. They are all at an advanced stage of development and no radial phase has been seen, the sculpture being coarsely punctate or papillate (Fig. 53 C). Busk only mentions one kind of avicularium, but the two types commonly found in the reticulatus group of Camptoplites (see p. 435) are present (Fig. 55 G, H)..

Axillary chamber, runners and rootlet stippled. The specimen from Challenger St. 299 (off Valparaiso, 87. 185) has neither spines nor ovicells. The specimens from Challenger St. 320 and St. 308 (see footnote, p. 466) belong to a distinct species described below as C. asymmetricus. Busk distinguished a variety, C. reticulatus var. unicornis, by the presence of " a tubular cylindrical spine arising from the back near the top ", but such spines are also present in.
