The medusa fauna of the mid North Atlantic Ocean between 24° and 55°N along approximately 30°W is studied. Two Hydromedusae new to science, Oceania tydemani and Annatiara lempersi, are described. The differences in fauna south and north of 42°N, and faunal borders near 50°, 48°, 45°, 35°, 30°, and 34°-37° N are discussed. The vertical distribution and for some species the diurnal migration and subtropical submergence are recorded.

This paper represents the second and final part of a study of the depth distribution and diurnal migration of pelagic decapod crustaceans in an area of the eastern North Atlantic. Part I (Foxton, 1970) dealt with the Caridea; Part II now considers the Penaeidea. In the discussion the data as a whole are analysed and the resulting patterns of vertical distribution and migration discussed.

INTRODUCTIONThis paper forms the second and last part of a study of the vertical distribution and migration of pelagic Amphipoda based on material collected off Fuertaventura, Canary Islands, during the SOND Cruise in 1965. The first part (Thurston, 1976b) dealt with the Gammaridea. The data presented herein deal with the Hyperiidea, to which is added a general discussion.The background to the cruise has been given by Currie, Boden & Kampa (1969), and Foxton (1969) has described the gear and methods used. This analysis is based primarily on samples obtained from a series of 1 m2 ring-net (N 113) hauls, but has been supplemented by selected materials from modified 3 m Isaacs-Kidd Mid-water Trawl (IKMT), neuston net and 1 m2 Rectangular Mid-water Trawl (RMT 1) hauls. Thurston (1976b) has discussed the limitations of the sampling techniques as they affect the present results.
