In April 1840 the dredge came up full of coral from a depth of 95 fathoms, and in the following January dredgings in 270 and 300 fathoms gave abundance of marine invertebrates in great variety, the deepest dredging in 400 fathoms in August 1841 bringing up some beautiful speci- mens of coral, corallines, flustrae, and a few crustaceous animals. Hooker made known some of Ross's results, and drew attention to the great role played by diatoms in the seas of the far south. Edward Forbes. Audouin and INIilne- Ed wards. Michael .Sir James Clark Ross. In 1839 the British Association appointed a Committee to investigate the marine zoology of Great Britain by means of the dredge, the ruling spirit of this Committee being Edward Forbes, who made many observations on the bathymetrical distribution of life in various seas. Before this time, it is true, Audouin and Milne-Edwards in 1830, and Michael Sars in 1835, had published the results of dredgings in comparatively shallow waters within limited areas along the coasts of Europe. In 1840-41 Forbes studied the fauna of the yEgean Sea,.
