 Occurrence. The "Ingolf has not found this species. But in 1903 and 1904 two specimens 

 in all were taken south of the south-west part of Iceland: 

 63° 15' N. L., 22°23'W. L., 114 — 173 fni.; i spec. 



West of Geirfugleskjser; young-fish trawl, 100 m. wire out; i extremely small spec, taken pelagically. 

 Distribution. The species, which is not known from the Fieroes, is common at the Shetland 

 Isles (Norman), is also found at the Hebrides (Norman) and further to the south on the coasts of 

 Great Britain and Ireland, at the Channel Islands (Norman), it is also taken in the Ba)- of Gascony, 

 220 fm. (Caullerj'), and at a number of places spread over almost the whole of the Mediterranean, in 

 depths from ca. 50 to 830 fm. (several authors). In Denmark it has been taken in the eastern Kattegat 

 at depths from 22 to 55 fm. (Meinert), also at Bohuslan (Goes); along the south and west coasts of 

 Norway from Christiania to Christianssund in 30—60 fm. (M. Sars).

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



West of Iceland, in the middle of the Denmark Straits: St. 11: 64° 34' N. L., 31° 12' W. L., 1300 fm., 

 temjD. 1-6°; i spec. 



Distribution. The species has hitherto only been known from some stations off the east 

 coast of North America between 41° 10' N. L. and 37° 50' N. L., in depths from 1098 to 1395 fm. (S. I. 

 vSmith); quite recently it is noted from South Africa, not far from Cape Point, 750—800 fm. (Stebbing). 



Remarks. The single specimen, a female, is 100 mm. long.
