This was first recorded from Bermuda by Miers. We took good 

 specimens in March, 1901, in shallow sandy places in Castle Harbor. 

 The Bermuda Biological Station had it from Hungry Bay. It was 

 also in Prof. Kincaid's collection (190.:5/i:). It was not in the ea.r\y 

 collections of Jones, Goode, etc. 



The Atlantic form (var. galloides) ranges from Florida to Bahia, 

 Brazil, and West Africa. Cape Verde Islands and Fernando Noronha 

 (Miers). Common ^n the West Indies ; Dominica I., in fish-trapsj 

 20-30 fathoms (A. H. Verrill, 1906, Yale Mus.). Bahia (Kathbun). 



The typical Pacific form (var. gallus) has a wide range through 

 the Indian and Pacific Oceans; Red Sea; Persian Gulf, etc. Philip- 

 pines (Miers).
