380 THE MOLLUSCA COLLECTED BY THE " HUXLEY " FROM THE 



This well-known species has an extensive habitat in the seas of 

 Europe, living as far north as the Faroe Islands. It is found throughout 

 the Mediterranean and off the coast of Morocco. 



Locard splits this species into two on the strength of distinctions 

 pointed out by de Monterosato, but I do not know how far this 

 distinction has been adopted, nor have I been able to inspect a series 

 of each. Our solitary specimen is both young and damaged, but can 

 be without doubt referred to the var. gracilis of Jeffreys. 



Station XI. 146 fathoms. One dead, young and broken.

Little seems to be known as to the distribution of this species. 

 Jeffreys mentions Loffoden Isles southwards on the authority of Loven 

 and others, Shetland (Barlee) and New England coasts of the United 

 States (Verrill), It is not recorded from either the Travailletcr, 

 Talisman, or Cauclan expeditions, which makes this an interesting 

 Bay of Biscay record.

This species seems to be confined to the North Atlantic, its habitat 

 extending from the North Cape (Bars, Friele), and Iceland (Steenstrup), 

 to the north, Massachusetts (Gould), Cape Hatteras (Dall.), New York 

 State (De Kay, Smith, Prime, Tryon, Man. Conch.), to the west, and 

 Eochelle (D'Orbigny pere and Aucapitaine) to the south. 



It is not recorded by Locard as having been found in either the 

 Travailleur, Talisman, or Cauclan expeditions.
