Positions of the observations obtained in the South Georgia area during the third commission of 'Discovery 11'. poorer in phytoplankton than others. Fig. 5 indicates the order of the quantitative differences observed during this cruise. Two lines of stations worked in the Scotia Sea early in April showed scanty phyto- plankton, though there was a hint of slight secondary autumnal increase at two of them. The long cruise eastwards in the autumn was carried out mainly in the Intermediate Region. At first the phytoplankton was very scanty, but during the first week of May distinct indications of autumnal secondary increase were observed. Thereafter the ship was working in more northerly waters until refitted at Simonstown (South Africa).
