 Findested. Stat. 223. 224.

 184. Stegocephalus ampulla, (Bhipps). 



Talrige, tildels kjæmpernæssige Exemplarer af denne 

 characteristiske Form erholdtes under Expeditionen fra 

 mange Steder i den kolde Areas Dyb (Stat. 31.. 87, 124, 

 137, 237, 251) indtil 634 Favnes Dyb, samt desuden paa 

 Stat. 9 udenfor vor Vestkyst, i Østhavet (Stat. 270), i 

 Vestfjorden (Stat. 255) samt i Havet om Spitsbergen (Stat. 

 338. 359 og 370). 



Arten, der er meget almindelig ved vore Kyster i 

 Dybsøcorallernes Region, er nordlig udbredt til Grønland, 

 Nordamerikas Østkyst, Polaroerne. det sibiriske Ishav og 

 Franz Josephs Land. Sydgrændsen for dens TTdbredning 

 synes at være de britiske Øer (Norman); mulig kan dog 

 her foreligge en Forvexling med følgende Art. 



185. Stegocephalus christianiensis. Boeck. 



Kogle Exemplarer af denne hidtil kun fra vore Kyster 

 bekjendte Art toges i Havet Vest af Nordlandskysten (Stat. 

 137) fra et Dyb af 452 Favne. 



186. Andania abyssi, Boeck. 



Denne hidtil ligeledes kun fra Norges Kyst bekjendte 

 Form observeredes under Expeditionen paa Stat. 31, 124 

 og 137, alle tilhørende den kolde Area og beliggende i 

 Havet udenfor vor Vestkyst: Dybden fra 350 til 452 Favne.

Fam. 3. Stegocephalidæ. 



184. Stegocephalus ampulla, (Phipps). 



Numerous — and in part truly colossal — speciniens 

 of this characteristic form were obtained on the Expedition 

 from man v localities in the deeps of the cold a.rea (Stats. 

 31. 87, 124. 137. 237. 251) down to 634 fathoms, as also 

 at Station 9. off the West Coast of Norway, in the Barents 

 Se : , (Stat. 270). in the Vestfjord (Stat, 255); finally, too, 

 in the sea surrounding Spitzbergen (Stats. 338, 359, 370). 



The species, which is very common off the Norwegian 

 coast in the region of deep-sea corals, has its northern 

 range of distribution up to Greenland, the east coast of 

 North America, the Polar Islands, the Siberian Polar Sea, 

 and Franz Josephs Land. The southern limit of its dis- 

 tribution would appear to be the British Islands (Norman); 

 possibly, however, the animal may have been confounded 

 with the following species. 



185. Stegocephalus christianiensis. Boeck. 



A few individuals of this species, known as vet from 

 the Norwegian coast alone, were tåken in the sea streteh- 

 ing west of the coast of Nordland (Stat. 137). at a depth 

 of 452 fathoms. 



186. Andania abyssi, Boeck. 



This form. also known hitherto exclusively from the 

 Norwegian const. w as observed on the Expedition at Sta- 

 tions 31, 124. and 137, all belonging to the cold area, and 

 located in the tract of ocean stretching off the West Coast 

 of Norway; depth from 350 to 452 fathoms.
