The sparseness of this distribution is in marked contrast to that found on the Greenwich Meridian and around the South Sandwich Islands; this is particularly true of the top 50 m. of water. Disregarding the catches at St. WS 190, where the nets were hauled from 1000 and 750 m. to the surface, there is no record from 50-0 m., and only one specimen was caught by a net hauled between 100 and 50 m., at St. WS 35, which, as shown by Hardy and Gunther (1935, fig. 41) fished in Weddell Sea Water. At St. WS 112 (160-50 m.), the specimen may have been taken in Warm Deep Water at the lowest part of the haul but if it was collected at the top of the haul, it would also have been taken in Weddell Sea Water. The remaining records of R. bongraini from the South Georgia Survey are from the upper layers of Warm Deep Water, some of them north of the northern limit of Weddell Drift, and it is not unlikely that this species inhabits this layer to the north, as far as the Antarctic Convergence.
