For studying the vertical distribution of larger organisms Chun used during the " Valdivia " Expedition a large silk net, 4 metres in length (Fig. 16). By lowering it to different depths. Fig. 17.—Monaco's Pelagic Trawl, (From Steuer.) and comparing the catches so obtained, he could determine at what particular depths the animals lived, and he succeeded in collecting by this means valuable data as to pelagic deep- water forms. The Prince of Monaco has also added largely to our knowledge of the habitats of the larger pelagic organisms by means of his pelagic trawl (Fig. 17), which is designed for Petersen young-fish Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Murray, John, Sir, 1841-1914; Hjort, Johan, 1869-; Appellöf, Jakob Johan Adolf, 1857-; Gran, H.
