Forbinder man med en Linie de yderste og dybeste

af de ovennævnte Stationer vil man kunne betragte denne
som Grændsen for Stenenes almindelige og regelmæssige
Forekomst i Havbundens Äfleiringer. Denne Linie vil
nordenfor den 65de Breddegrad omtrent fölge Grændsen
for det graa Lers Udbredelse.

At domme efter de Bundprøver, der er optagne
söndenfor den 65de Breddegrad, maa man drage den Slutning,
at Norges Kystbanker ber er meget fattigere paa Stene
end længere nord.

I Bundprøverne fra det brune Ler forekommer Stene
kun spredt og enkeltvis. Der er imidlertid i denne
Henseende en betydelig Forskjel mellem det nordlige og
sydlige Parti af Havet. Medens vi i syd for den 72de
Breddegrad kun ganske sjelden træffer Stene i Biloculinleret, er

were brought up within the tract marked off on the Map
as grey clay.

If we connect by means of a line the deepest and
outermost of the above-mentioned Stations, such line
may be regarded as the limit of the common and regular
occurrence of the pebbles in the surface-layer of the
ocean. The said line will, north of the 65th parallel of
latitude, very nearly coincide with the distribution of the
grey clay.

To judge from the bottom-samples brought up south
of the 65th parallel of latitude, we must draw the inference,
that the coastal banks of Norway in this locality have
their surface-layer far less abundantly supplied with pebbles
than is the case with the banks farther north.

In the samples from the brown clay, the pebbles do not
occur otherwise than isolated. In this respect, however,
there is a considerable difference between the northern and
the southern tracts of the ocean. Thus, whereas we. south
of the 72nd parallel of latitude, comparatively seldom meet
