søgt Punkt omkring denne Øgruppe. Ogsaa ber fandtes 

 rognfulde Individer i August Maaned. Ved Jan Mayen 

 er den hidtil blot erholdt under Nordhavs-Expeditionen. 

 Den findes ikke omtalt fra Island, men optræder langs 

 Norges Nord- og Vestkyst lige ned i Kattegat under 58° 

 N. B.. altid paa det noget dybere Vand (ikke under 20 

 Favne). Et enkelt Individ (I. furciger. Malm) er fon- 

 det paa den svenske Kyst (Gullmarfjården) ved Bohuslen 

 i 1861. 



Ved Americas Kyster er den hidtil ikke omtalt søn-

well investigated locality there. Examples having the ab- 

 domen distended with roe also occurred there in August. 

 Off the coast of Jan Mayen, the only individuals hitherto 

 observed were those taken on the Expedition. The species 

 is nowhere mentioned as occurring on the shores of Ice- 

 land; it is met with, however, along the entire line of the 

 Norwegian coast, extending as far south as the Cattegat. 

 in lat. 58° N.. invariably at some depth (not less than 

 20 fathoms). A solitary example (I. furciger. Malm) was 

 observed off Bohuslen in 1861. 



On the shores of North America, it is not mentioned 

 as extending further south than Greenland.
