CRUSTACEA MALACOSTRACA. IV. " 45 



In most of my females the ridges and tubercles of the carapace are adorned with small dark dots, 

 and some similar dots are also frequently found on the abdomen, the uropods, etc. 



Occurrence. Not taken by the "Ingolf" but by the "Thor" at four localities. 



South of Iceland: Lat. 6j°i5' N., Long. 22°23' W., 114 — 172 fath. ; 2 females. 

 — - Lat. 63°05' N., Long. 2O o 0j' W., 290 fath.; 2 females. 



South-West of the Faeroes: Lat. 6i°i5' N., Long. 9°35' W., 463 — 515 fath.; 2 females. 



Lat. 6i°07' N., Long. Q°3o' W., 443 fath.; 5 females. 



Distribution. At several places at the west coast of Norway from Hardanger Fjord to Lofoten, 

 100 — 300 fath. (G. O. Sars). The "Thor" captured it south-west of Norway at Lat. 58°32' N., Long. 4°i8' E., 

 149 fath. Caiman referred with some uncertainty a broken specimen from Lat. 39°59 x /2' N., Long. 70°30 3 / 4 ' W., 

 428 fath., to this species; he refers also with some doubt a specimen from Sagami Bay, Japan, to C.homda, 

 but his remarks on its size and especially the more slender distal joints in some appendages make it rather 

 certain that it must be a different species, which he also suggests as a possibility. Lo Bianco's statement 

 on its occurrence in the Mediterranean may possibly be correct, but it is not very probable.

Only a few remarks on some appendages shall be made for comparison with Sars' figures. I found 

 in second pair of maxillipeds a well developed, triangular tooth on the distal inner angle of the carpus, a 

 somewhat slender tooth on the distal inner angle of the propodus, only a slight difference in the length of 

 first and third spine of the dactylus, both these spines longer than figured by Sars, and between them the 

 second, very small, but distinct spine. In third maxillipeds I found more important difference in the size 

 and shape of the merus; fig. 8 a shows this joint larger than figured by Sars in proportion to carpus, only 

 a little narrower than the distal part of second joint, and somewhat expanded inwards, as its inner margin 

 has the proximal two-thirds somewhat convex, and then it is suddenly angularly bent; some differences in 

 the teeth on the merus and the two following joints may be observed by comparison between fig. 8 a and 

 Sars' fig. nip 3 . In first pair of legs I found on the outer margin of the merus some small teeth and a long sub- 

 terminal tooth ; otherwise his figures of this leg and of second leg agree with my preparation. The expansion 

 of the merus of third maxillipeds is a good character and besides of special interest (see "Remarks" at the 

 next species). 



Occurrence. Not taken by the "Ingolf" but by the "Thor" at four localities. 



South of Iceland: Lat. 63°i8' N., Long. 2i°3o' W., 95 fath.; 1 specimen. 



Lat. 63°i5' N., Long. 22°23' W., 114 — 172 fath.; 15 specimens.
