Between the tropical region on the one side and the Antarctic on the other, we find a large region in which all three kinds are found near each other. In several hauls specimens of all three forms were found together. A glance at Fig. 6 shows also that the material is not distributed equally along the route. There seem to exist several centres of distribution: south of Cape Verde, north of South Georgia, the waters near the Cape
