The combined results of these three surveys show that the species was collected once in Antarctic Surface Water, in the 100-50 m. nets, nine times in the nets hauled between 250 and 100 m. which fished in Antarctic Surface Water and Warm Deep Water, and thirty-one times by the nets which were hauled in the Warm Deep Water between 1000 and 250 m. These suggest that around South Georgia, T. miilleri is essentially a Warm Deep Water species. 36° W 1 .WS 160(1) .WS 190(1) ⢠ws ise (!) ⢠WS ISI (13) WS 167 (2)* m ... ⢠WS 149 (2) 1 s' " .yl!° ""-- ⢠WS 146(2) B i "â¢* * 4fe 54 ! rs X. ^1 \ i fcui \ / NO N70V NETS --â IN THIS SECTOR -' 1 k - 55- S SS- S.

The occurrence of T. miilleri in the region of the Greenwich Meridian is shown both in Text- figs. 4a and b (p. 167) and in Tables 17 and 18. It occurred at all stations made in this area, except St. 2027. T. miilleri was never caught in very large numbers about the Greenwich Meridian, but nevertheless it was collected with marked regularity at certain depths, particularly between 1000 and 250 m. In January 1939, it occurred in all nets fished between 750 and 250 m. and in general at stations in the Antarctic Zone it was taken fairly regularly in the Warm Deep Water.
