Distribution. The species has previously been recorded fairly common in the eastern part of 

 the north polar basin crossed by Nan sen; specimens were found as far north as 85 Lat. N., and 

 here near the surface; at the other stations they were found at considerable depth. From Spitsbergen 

 it has been recorded by Mrazek. In the ocean lying between Spitzbergen and Greenland it was 

 found fairly common from altogether 18 stations, scattered all over the area crossed by the Due d'Or- 

 leaus as far north as 80° L. N. 2°47 L. E. ; its range was between 100 and 700 meters in depth. In the 

 Norwegian Sea it was found a few times between Finmarken and Jan Mayeu between 500 and 1000
