a \rr\ different position 1'roin that in the present form. Another character by 

 \vhich the present species may In- easily distinguished from /,. coronata Clans. is 

 the dense fringe of delicate denticle-, with which the po-terior edges of the caudal

 differences. 



Occurrence. I ha\e found this form oec;i-ioiiall\ at . \ale-nnd. we-t Cl 

 of Norway, aa al-o in the Trondhjem Kjord just lieiieath steep cliffs, in depths 

 ranging from 6 to 10 fathoms. In habits it exactly agrees with the preced- 

 ing species.

S/,,ri/ir Clittnirln-x. Fi'nmli'. Hody of the usual form, the anterior divi-
