Extract

In the course of dredging for the rich epifauna of the continental slope near 48° 30′N., 10° W. (Southward & Southward, 1958b) in May 1957, several hauls were made by chance on a muddy bottom at 500–700 fin. depth. At the time, these hauls were examined only cursorily after sieving, and the con-tents immediately preserved. One of the hauls contained several damaged siliceous sponges, and a recent careful examination disclosed a number of pogonophore tubes entangled among the threads and spicules of the sponges.
