a chitinoiis wall and a granular content, and was as a whole not quite unlike a spermatophor.

Occurrence. Of this species the Ingolf Expedition has taken a single adult female ^% 1896 

 St. 92 64°44 L. N. 32"52 L. W. 



The Thor Expedition has gathered the species, fairly connnou, at several stations, most often 

 in deep hauls.

Outside the Ingolf area the S/S. Thor has gathered the species at the following stations.

Distribution. The above mentioned localities affirm the conclusion arrived at by Farran at the 

 base of the records in the literature "that Chiridius annatns is a permanent inhabitant of the North- 

 East Atlantic, the Norwegian Sea south of 65° N., the Norwegian Channel and the Skagerak, at depths 

 of from 300 to 2000 metres, and is also indigenous to all the deeper Norwegian fjords." It has been 

 taken by the Monaco Expedition; the records of this species from the west coast of Greenland and 

 from the North Polar Basin refer, as shown by Sars, really to Cli. obfiisi/rons. 



According to Damas and Koefoed it has been taken at the following two stations by the 

 Due d'Orleans. Viz: St. 14 9/^ 1905 8o°i7 L. N. 5°40 L. E. between 340 and 600 meters (f^ with 

 ovisacs) and St. 23, "7/^ 77°25 L. N. 4°03 L. W. between 480 — 640 meters; as, however, nearly related 

 species exist, which have probably been confounded with Ck. armafus now and then, these localities 

 ought to be accepted with due reservation.
