ANTARCTIU BENTHOS
69
latitudes, extending along the Antarctic Peninsula to the South Shetlands, South Sandwich Islands and South Georgia as well as off Kerguelen, in depths from 210 to 1 464 m.
The specimens recorded by Weisbord (1965) from the Sars Bank
belong to another species (Newman and Ross).
A range of Quaternary deposits containing Bathylasma (= Hexelasma) fossils in McMurdo Sound has been listed by Speden (1962).
I n summary therefore the Antarctic cirripede fauna contains the
following elements :
Briarosaccus callosus Boschma-South Georgia ;
Ascothorax bulbosus Heegaard-South Georgia, endemic ;
Australophialus tomlinsoni Newman and Ross-circum-AntarcArcoscalpellurn.-(2O
species of which 14 are endemic) ;
Scalpellum vanhoffeni-circum-Antarctic ;
LitoscaZpeZlum-(7 endemic species) ;
Gymnoscalpellum--(2 endemic species) ;
Neoscalpellum schizoplacinum Newman and Ross-Southeast
Australscalpellum schizmatoplacinuwz-East Antarctica,endemic ;
Verruca (Altiverruca) gibbosu-Almost cosmopolitan, East AnBathylasm corolliforme-circum-Antarctic, known also from
The known Antarctic cirripede fauna therefore totals 37 species, of
tic, endemic ;

Antarctic Cumacea have been collected by most of the expeditions.
Reports on the group have been prepared by Hansen (1908), Zimmer
(1907a, 1907b, 1908, 1909, 1913), Calman (1907, 1917a, 1917b, 1918),
Hale (1937) and Gamo (1969). Lomakina (1968) summarized previous
collections and published maps showing the distribution for species
collected by Soviet expeditions. Jones (1971) described collections from
the Ross Sea, and recorded the species present in a collection from the
South She tlands .
Jones (1971) considered that 28 species had been recorded from the
Antarctic with 12 other species from the Subantarctic. Combining the
data from Lomakina (1968) and Jones (1971) gives a total of 41 species
from the Antarctic and Subantarctic of which 93% are endemic to the
