To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Latitude 29 degrees 26 minutes south; longitude 101 degrees 32 minuteseast.
We caught several small shells (Janthina exigua) this afternoon:Illustration 9 represents one of them, with the string of air bubblesattached, by means of which they swim on the water. They appear not to beable to free themselves from this mass of bubbles: every shell I have yetfound floating in the Indian Ocean possesses these bubbles in a greateror less degree; they were of a purple colour. I have seen the commongarde...n snail in England emit a nearly similar consistency: they also emita blue or purple liquid, which colours anything it touches.
The animals of the barnacles (Pentalasmis) attached to these shellsassume their purple colours, while the shell remains nearly pure white.
This afternoon we caught an animal (Glaucus, Illustration 10) I had notbefore seen. It seemed to represent the order reptilia in the Mollusca, being sluggish in movement, its eyes distinct, sensitive to the touch, its head much resembling a lizard in appearance, and having a very strongunpleasant smell when taken out of the water.
