Extract

The collection of Cephalopoda made by H.M.S. “Challenger,” though not extensive, is of great interest, not only because a considerable number of new species were discovered, but also because several rare forms were found in fresh localities, and because a few specimens (many of them fragmentary) were obtained, which bear interesting relations to those already known.
