Descriptions of twenty-two species, including eight new species, of deep sea echiurans (Echiura) have been given in this part of the report on the North and the South Atlnatic echiurans collected between 1969 and 1976 by the Centre océanologique de Bretagne and sorted by the CENTOB in France. These species belong to fifteen genera of which one is a new genus. Except two species of the genus Thalassema (Fam. Thalassematidae), all echiurans of this report are bonellids (Fam. Bonellidae) and seven speies of these bonellids were earlier described as deep sea forms of the Pacific. Twenty-eight species have been known heretofore to occure in the coastal waters of the Atlantic, four of which are there in the present report.
