Occurrence. The "Ingolf has taken only one specimen of this species. 



South of West Iceland: St. 69: 62° 40' N. L., 22°i7'W. L., 589 fm., temp. 3-9°; i spec. 



Distribution. According to the literature the distribution of this species is as wide as it is 

 remarkable. It was first observed on the west coast of Scotland at ca. 56° N. L,., and also in Irish 

 waters. On the south and west coasts of Norway it has been taken at a number of localities in deep 

 water, down to 217 fm. at least; the most northerly of these places was Trondhjem Fjoi-d (Storm, 

 1878I; it was also taken at Bohuslan (Goes) and in the north-easterly part of the Kattegat, in 49 to 

 25 fm. (Meinert). It has been taken in the deep part of the western Mediterranean by the "Travailleur" 

 (A. Milne-Edwards), also in the Adriatic in depths from 70 to 630 fm. On the east coast of 

 America it has been taken in the Gulf of St. Lawrence in 190 fm. (Whiteaves, test. Smith). While 

 there is no reason for doubt that all these indications refer to tliis species, the following two appear 

 to me very remarkable. Kirk (test. Alcock & Anderson) states that he has found two dead specimens 

 at New Zealand; Alcock also (1. c.) mentions some specimens from the Arabian Sea, 636 fm., and from 

 the Bay of Bengal, off Ceylon, 800 — 637 fm. Unfortunately, Alcock says nothing as to how far he 

 has made a direct comparison between European and Indian specimens, but he describes his Indian 

 specimens and is so careful an observer on Decapoda that his determination should presumably be 

 accepted. 



Remarks. The single specimen lacked the fir.st pair of thoracic legs and several other parts. 

 It differs a little in the form of the rostrum from Danish specimens; in other details I found no 

 difference.

Occurrence. The "Ingolf" has taken this beairtiful .sjiecies at a single station. 

 South of West Iceland: St. 69: 62°4o'N. L., 22° 17' W. L., 589 fm., temp. 3-9°; i spec. 

 Distribution. Smith gives it from various stations off the east coast of America between 

 35° 49"2' N. D. and 43° 10' N. L., 250 to 843 fm. A. Milne-Edwards has had it from six stations in the 

 West Indies, depths from 611 fm. to "1568— 1400" fm. It is also known from the Gulf of Gascogne, 

 depths from 346 to 638 fm. (CauUery), from the Mediterranean north-west of Sardinia, 1140 fm. 

 and lower to 1494— 1508 fm. (Senna), from the Indian Ocean off Cape Natal, 440 fm. (Stebbing) 

 and from the Arabian Sea, 738, 824 and 836 fm. (Alcock). Faxon mentions a form, which he with
