The mean length of the longest oral disk spines (Tables I and III) is essentially the same in the Newfoundland and Greenland samples but is signif- icantly longer in the Maine sample. An increase in length of oral disk spines is correlated with an increase in disk diameter, but the correlation coefficients are low, varying from for the three samples. The morphology of the oral disk spine tips (Tables II and III) differs signif- icantly between Maine and Newfoundland but is essentially the same in New- 0) c «> . - -j 4) C "o.
