tlie investigator who collected the jnaterial in question during the ,,A n t a r c t i c" expedition 

 and on whose determinations ('. \\. S. Ari!)\lLLH s and P. T. (.'LE\E based their information. 

 A laro-e j^art of this material has unfortunately been lost; there are, however, oiu^ f)r more speci- 

 mens preserved from each of the stations in question, so that the statements as to identity 

 can be verified.

 and A. M. NOHMAN, 1896) and lat. S4" N. (ii. O. Sai^s, 1<)()()); Baffin Bay (Karajak Fjord, lat.

Shell: — Length: According to (t. W. MCller, 2,8—2,95 mm. Both the specimens 

 investigated by me measured 2,8 mm. The shape was quite or at any rate almost quite the same 

 as in C. borealis. Thus the shoulder vault had a sharp edge, contrary to what is stated by 

 (t. W. MC'LLEJ!, 1906 a; males and females are alike in this respect (a variable character?). 

 The posterior margin of the shell too is about the same as in the form just mentioned and, 

 as is the case in this form, it varies to some extent. The scidpture is of the same type as 

 in C. horealis. ])ut is rather considerably weaker; with suitable manipulation it is visible 

 on the whole surface of the shell; it varies somewhat in strength. In other respects the 

 sh(dl is like that of C. horealis. 



With regard to o t h e r <• h a r a, c t e r s this form agrees with ('. borealis. with the 



exception of the d-bristle on the male 

 first antenna, which is of al)out th(> 

 type reproduced in C4. W. Mt*LLER's pi. 

 XXVI, fig. 9; on the e-bristle of this limb 

 there were only 40 to 44 spines in (>ach 

 row in the specimens investigated by me.
