Notes on the benthic stations sampled by the Deutsche Tiefsee-Expedition (1898-1899) in southern African waters

Abstract

The South African stations of the Deutsche Tiefsee-Expedition (1898–99) are reviewed, and an amended table is given for the 15 stations for which Mollusca are listed. It is demonstrated that practically all of the species ascribed to Station 81, which was positioned off Angola, consisted of mislabelled Agulhas Bank elements.
