Denne art forekom vistiiok ikke blandt Nordiiavseks- 

 peditionen,s materiale, men jeg tager den med her a.lligevel, 

 fordi jeg vinteren 1899 tog den l)landt andre steder ogsaa 

 i den indre del af Vestfjorden, som gik ind under ekspe- 

 ditionens undersøgelsesfelt. 



Det liar ogsaa sin interesse, at K. sniiffil hører til 

 de polyzoer, som gaar dybest ned. 



1 Tranodybet (Vestfjorden) tog jeg nemlig IGde Marts 

 1899 et eksemplar i en dybde af 607 — 640 m. Arten er 

 funden paa forskjellige steder langs den norske fra Kors- 

 fjorden til Slotholmcn i Nordland.

Norman (17. vol. 13) har undersogt eksemplarer fra 

 Karahavet og St. Lawrence og paa de førstnævnte tillige 

 fundet oocier. som lignede oocierne hos den foregaaende art. 



K/iwtosJ{?as arhorescens er liidtil kun funden i et eks- 

 emplar i Wijde Bay, Spitsbergen, i 40 favnes dyb, lerbund, 

 af prof. Loven. Dijmphna-ekspeditionen tog diverse eks- 

 emplarer i Karahavet (Levinsen). Danielsen tog etpar ved 

 Vadsø (90 favne, lerbund), endvidere er arten kjendt fra 

 St. Lawrencebugten (Whiteaves). Det er saaledes inter- 

 essant at kunne konstatere artens tilstedeværelse paa St. 2 

 (Sognefjv)rden). Paa dette sted var dybden 1229 meter, 

 hvilket er den storste hidtil kjendte sænkning af bunden i 

 nogen norsk fjord. Runden l)estod af sandig ler og tem- 

 peraturen paa dybet 6".T C.

Denne art forekom l)lan(it det mi.i; tilstillcde mate-

 samme paa forskjellige steder fra Bergen til Lofoten.

This species did not, indeed, occur in the North At- 

 lantic Expedition's collection, hut I nevertheless include it 

 here, because, among other places, I found it, in the early 

 part of 1899. in the inner jiart of Vestfjorden, which was 

 included in the E.\pedition's field of investigation. 



It is also of some interest to note that A', smiftii 

 belongs to tliose Polyzoa tiiat go deepest. 



In Tran(->dybet (Vestfjord) on the 16tli Mare.h, 1899, 

 I took oni! specimen from a depth of between 60? and 

 640 metres. The species is found in various places along 

 the Norwegian coast from Korsfjorden to Slotholmen in 

 Nordland.

Occurrence. St. 2, 23. 31. 



Norman (17. vol. 13) has examined speciniens from 

 the Kara Sea and St. Lawrence, and on the former found 

 oæcia that resembled the oæcia in tiie preceding sjjecies. 



Only one specimen of Kinetosl;ias arborescens has 

 liitherto been found in Wijde Bay, Spitsbergen, at a depth 

 of 40 fathoms, clay bottom, by Prof. Lovin. The Dijmphna 

 Expedition found several speciniens in the Kara Sea (Le- 

 vinsen). Danielsen found a few at Vadsø (90 fatlioms, 

 clay bottom), . and the species is further known from the 

 Gulf of St. Lawrence (Whiteaves). It is thus interesting 

 to be al)le to prove the presence of the species at Station 

 2 (Sogne Fjord). The de])th here was 1229 metres, wiiich 

 is the greatest depression of the bottom hitiierto known in 

 any Norwegian fjord. Tiie bottom consisted of sandy clay, 

 and tiie temperature tiiiTe was G.7" C.

Tliis species occurred in tiie collection sent to me, 

 hut there was no statenieiit as to wiiere it was found. I 

 have also found the same species in various places between 

 Bergen and Lofoten.
