LAMELLIBRANCHIATA. 



The larji'C.st specinieii measures 35""". Among a niiniber of s])cciiiicns collected at an earlier 

 date, the locality not stated more precise than "the Faeroes", the largest measures 40""". The greatest 

 depth at which an adult specimen has Ijeen taken is 60 fm.'). 



Distribution. Apart irom .South-West and South Iceland and the Faeroes, Ainniiid piililli/oniiis 

 occurs along the Norwegian coast from Lofoten southwards (0-40 fm.), and rarely iu the northern

The greatest dejJth at which any living specimen was taken was 975 fm., but they may have 

 been attached to two large pieces of timber brought up iu the trawl; otherwise the greatest depth 

 was 691 fm.; the other depths lie between 44 and 316 fm. 



■) The specimen from 90 fm. is very small, 5™"'. long.
