CRUSTACEA MALACOSTRACA. IV. I 5 



The Ilnd Amdrup-Kxpeditiou has secured this species at two places. 



Jan Mayen, 50 — 60 fath., and 55 fath. ; 46 specimens. 



East Greenland: North of Steward Land (ab, Lat. 70^0' N.), 158 fath., clay with stones; 1 specimen. 



Distribution. Ohlin's specimens were taken at three stations at King Charles Island, Spitz- 

 bergen, viz. in Bremer Sound. 53—58 fath., temp. 7 1.45° ; at Lat. /8°5o' N., Long. 27°^' E., 10 fath., temp. 

 0.2°, and at Lat. 78°5o' N., Long. 2g°39' E., 32 — 37 fath.; furthermore it is recorded from a place at East 

 Spitzbergen, 45 fath., and from a locality north of Spitzbergen at Lat. 81 20' N., 530 fath. (Zimmer, in 1908). 

 Stappers recorded 3 specimens from two hauls taken near one another south of Novaya Zemlya, Lat. 70 20' N.,

Occurrence. Not taken by the "Ingolf", but captured by several other expeditions or collectors 

 at various places within our area. 



At West-Greenland it was known from Kekertak, Lat. 6g°58' N., 40 fath., and Godhavn, Lat. 69°i4'N. 

 (H. J. Hansen) ; by Traustedt it has been gathered at Holstensborg, Lat. 66°56' N. It is not known from the 

 northern, western or southern side of Iceland, but at East-Iceland it has been taken at four places, viz. in 

 Bakke Fjord, 52 — 43 fath. ("Diana", by Dr. A. C. Johansen) ; Viid Fjord, 8—12 fath. (by Mag. R. Horring), 

 Faskruds Fjord, 50 — 20 fath., blue clay (by Mag. R. Horring), and Breiddals Vik, 6 fath., mud and black 

 sand, about 200 specimens (by Dr. A. C. Johansen). Off East Greenland it has been taken by the Ilnd Am- 

 drup-Expedition at Cape Dalton, Lat. ca. 69°3o' N., 9 — 11 fath., 1 specimen, and it has been recorded from 

 Hekla Havn, Lat. 70°27' N., 10 fath. (H. J. Hansen), and from S. of Little Pendulum Island, Lat. 74°35' N., 

 Long. i8°23'W., 9—12 fath. (Ohlin). 



Distribution. L. nasicoides has been recorded from the southern part of Kattegat, 14V2 to 20 fath., 

 the Samso Belt, 7 and 11 fath., and the northern part of the Sound, 16 fath. ; furthermore from Skager Rak, 

 no and 125 fath. (H. J. Hansen). At Norway it has been found in several localities from Christianiafjord 

 to Lofoten, 10 to 50 fath., and at Hammerfest (G. O. Sars). Stappers recorded a good number of specimens 

 from two hauls taken near one another south of Novaya Zemlya, Lat. 70 20' N., Long. 56 35' and 56^34' E., 

 48 fath. Off North America it has been recorded from the Gulf of St. Lawrence and from Eastport in the Bay 

 of Fundy (S. I. Smith), finally from Lat. 45°29' N., Long. 55°24' W., 67 fath. (Caiman). -- Stebbing (1. c.) has 

 among the localities "Spitzbergen", depth 1000 m. ; his authority is certainly Zimmer in "Fauna arctica", but 

 he has overlooked that the last-named author in his Cumacea from the German "Tiefsee-Expedition", 1908, 

 p. 178, says that the specimens from Spitzbergen determined by him in 1900 as L. nasicoides in reality 

 belong to L. Nathorstii.
