Also curred in roughly equal numbers.^ These records confirm our earlier experience that of these two Sagittae, which are so often companions in our waters, elegans is the more neritic, serratodentata the more oceanic. In its bathymetric range, Sagitta elegans agreed with Cedanus fin- marchicus, in as far as it usually is lacking in the surface hauls in sum- mer, even when plentiful in the deeper layers (so far detected on the 1 S. elegans detected at Stations 10405-10407,and 10409-10416.
