Our little red Ovulum carnea is an importantlink. The Barbadian scaphopods include about 16 species, repre-senting several subgenera. Four of the five caduli are only-Barbadian as so far known. The most striking of the dentaliais D. stenoschizum P. and S. which possesses an exceedinglylong apical slit, quite a fourth the length of the shell. described by Verrill from Cape Hatteras and a veryabundant species off the Florida East Coast, appeared in ourdredge. Without any intervening records this becomes a verylong distributional leap. The only Antiguan scaphopods wemet are two caduli, both new species. Almost every haul of the dredge made in rough ground broughtto our collection some brachipods. Probably the commonest wasthe little Argyrotheca ruhrotincta Dall which cling to the frag-ments of coral rocks
