South of Iceland. The Ingolf Expedition ha.s south of Iceland 's/^ 1896 St. 68 taken 2 V and 

 '8/5 1896 St 54 3 f? + 3 V. The Thor has ^Vs 1904 (St- 104, 62°47 L. N. i5°o3 h. W. Yt. 1500 M. 

 Wire) taken 25 f? and "/? 1904 (St. 183 6i°30 L. N. i7°o8 h. W. Yt. 1800 M. W.) taken 20 f?, 10 V 

 and I IV. As the Danish East Greenland Exp. from «-^% 1900 has taken 50 samples (F. 312—366) 

 at the surface from Denmark Strait and 63 (F. 367—430) in the Atlantic Ocean south of Iceland 

 without any specimens, it is certainly right to conclude, that C. hyperboreus is only seldom found in these 

 regions at the surface. 



Iceland-Fseroe Channel. In the Iceland-Fseroe Channel the Ingolf Exp. has from "-'% 1895 

 taken 3 samples of which 2 together contained 8 f? and 2 V, one contained a single IV and one 3 

 III; 19 f? and 29 (V), contained in 4 samples, taken from 'S-^i/, 1896, were examined, but only 4 IV 

 (found in 2 samples) and a single (III). The Thor has 5/5 1904 (St 63, 64=05 L. N. 9=38 L. W. Yt 300 

 M. Wire) taken 10 f?, 10 (V), i (IV), ^V, 1904 (St 99, 61=15 L. N. 9=35 L. W. Yt 1000 M. Wire) 16 f? 

 + 7 (V) and 9/5 (St 70, 63=35 L. N. 6°20 L. W. Yt 100 M. Wire) 175 f?. From 4/3 1904 (St. 230, 63=10 

 L. N. 7=31 L. W. Yt 1200 M. Wire) i f ?, i V and i IV were found. As far south as 57=52 E. N. 9=53 L. W. 

 Yt 1500 M. Wire the S/S Thor has s/^ 1905 taken 16 f? + 20 (V). 



North Coast of Iceland. The Ingolf E.xp. has on the north-west coast of Iceland collected a 

 large number of Cal. hyperboreus ^7/^ 1896 St 125 with the stage V in majority; north-east of Iceland 

 as far north as Jan Mayen 11 samples with C. h. were taken from ^°-^'<l^ 1904; 7 of these contained 

 f?, 7 (V), 4 (IV), 3 (III) and 2 stage II; in all samples but one the stage IV— V formed the greatest 

 percentage. 



Norwegian Sea etc. In the western part of the Norwegian Sea between 60° L. N. 3° L. E. 

 and 69° E. N. 6° L. W. the Danish East Greenland Expedition has not in any of the 84 surface 

 samples (F 1—89), which were collected from '9-24/5 and contained plenty of C. finmarchicus, found 

 C. hyperboreus. With E. 14 a single f? was taken "je c. 64° L. N. 0-51 E. W. The same expedition 

 has near Jan Mayen with a closing net made several vertical hauls, and a few horizontal ones with a 

 big net, which makes it evident that the species was ratlier common in this region.
