Abstract
The larval cephalopod material upon which this report is based was obtained in plankton hauls of the Research Ship Warreen along the eastern Australian coast in 1938–1941, during investigations by the Fisheries Division, Council for Scientific and Industrial Research. I am indebted to Dr. H. Thompson, Chief, Fisheries Division, for the opportunity to report on this interesting and unusual material, and to Dr. D. L. Serventy and Mr. K. Sheard for help in matters relating to stations, depths and other factors associated with the collection. My thanks are also due to Miss Betty McKinnon, Lands Department, Sydney, for preparation of the map.
