ANNELIDS. I. 



A single specimen has been taken on each of the above named localities, and the capture is 

 of some interest, as the specimen brought home by the Danmark-Expedition originated from the East 

 coast of Greenland. 



The species seems to prefer rather deep water, perhaps the reason why so few specimens of 

 this apparently rather uncommon species have come to light

Locality: 



The Ingolf-Exped. has taken this species in the following localities: 



St. 35. 65T6' N. L. 55°05' W. L. 362 fins. Davis Strait. 



- 25. 6 3 °3o' 54° 2 5 ' — 582 — 



- 38. 59°i2' — 5i°c>5' — 1S70 S. W. of Greenland. 



- 59. 65°oo' — n°i6' — 310 — East of Iceland. 



- 116. 70°05' — 8°26' — 371 — South of Jan Mayen. 



Further it has been taken in Davis Strait by the investigation-vessel "Tjalfe" in 66°22' N. L. 

 57°i6' W. L., 686 m. and in 64°i4' N. L. 55°55' W. L., 839 m. 



From Danmark Strait some specimens are present, taken in 65°39' N. L. 28°25' W. L. 553 fms., 

 and finally from the area at Jan Mayen a little farther north than the Ingolf station 116, namely from 

 7o°32' N. L. 8°io' W. L., 470 fms. 



That the species described by G. Arm. Hansen under the name of Polynoe assimilis must be 

 referred to the species here concerned, I have convinced myself of by examining the original specimens 

 of the named author, kindly lent me by Professor Briukmaun in Bergen. 



Harmothoe Jeffreysii Mc. Intosh. 



1900. Lagisca fcffreysii, Ale. Intosh: A monograph Brit. Ann. II, p. 305. 



Locality : 



The Faroe Islands; Vestman-sound c. 70 fms. 



Dr. Mortensen took three specimens in the named locality in 1899. The largest measures 

 26 mm. in length and it has a breadth of 7 mm., bristles included. The two others are considerably 

 smaller. The specimens seem to be typical and well agreeing with Mc. Into sir s description of this 

 characteristic species. 



About the geographical distribution of this species only little is to be said; the specimens of 

 Mc. Intosh originate from the island of Balta.
