view. How far Brandt's variety aluiacea ought to be consi- 

 dered a variety or distinct species, is a matter tbat must be 

 left to a futiire revision of the whole genus to decide. Another 

 species, viz. Ryas lyratus Dana, occurs from the Aleutian 

 Islands and the Pacific coast of North America southwards 

 to Puget Sound. This species seems to be a very distinct one. 

 Hy as coarctatus occurs in depths from a few (5) up to 

 more than hundred fathoms.
