by Morch and preserved in the Museum I have found, that this statement rests on a confusion with 

 C.fasciatum Mtg. ') (of. p. 79 and figs, gf, g and h in PI. III). 



The species is thus not known from the Faeroes and must be omitted from tlie fauna Hst.

The "Ingolf has taken this small species at the following places:

[West Greenland.] 

 According to Posselt^), there are 5 specimens of C. iiiitiiiiniii/ in the Riksmuseum of Stock- 

 holm, labelled as taken by the Swedish Expedition of 187 1 at Kekertarsuak, which lies at Disko 

 Fjord at 69'/2 N. L. I have had the opportunity of seeing one of these specimens and can confirm 

 the correctness of the determination ; but on taking the general geographical distribution of the species 

 into account, I feel convinced that some change in the label has taken place, and that the specimens 

 in question do not come from Greenland. 



Iceland. 



The species was not known earlier from Iceland, Init in recent years it has been taken (besides 

 at the "Ingolf stations noted above) at the following places: 



63°i5'N. L., 22^23' W.L 170— 114 fm. ca. 1000 spec. 



63°i8' — 21^30' — 94 - 10 — & 18 valves.

and stones. 



63^42' N. L., 17^34' W. L 18-40 - 5 valves. 



') Has Morch himself been in doubt as to the correctness of the (leterniinatioii, since he has not inchiiled C. rdi/h' 

 in his suniniarj' at the end of his paper, or has he sini])lv forgotten?
