Habitat. — This species is of wide distribution. It 

 was first taken by Admiral Ross and General Sabine 

 in Baffin's Bay, also on the coasts of Greenland, 

 Iceland, Norway, and Scandinavia ; and it is common 

 both in the German and Baltic Seas. It has been 

 taken in Berwick Bay by Dr. Johnston, in the 

 Mersey by Mr. Byerley, and on the coast of Nor- 

 thumberland by Mr. Hodge. I have only taken it 

 on one occasion at Cumbrae, in the surface-net 

 after sunset.
