This species was first obtained by the illustrious Swed- 

 ish zoologist LovÉN ofF the coast of Finmark where it was 

 afterwards observed by Särs. It was described by GoÉs 

 from specimens collected at Spitzbergen. Stebbing mentions 

 it from the Barents Sea from lat. 70° 51' JST., long. 53° E. 

 Hansen from West Cireenland in lat. 60 35' N., long. 54" 50' 

 W. and Vanhöffen from Karajok Fiord. Its area of distribu- 

 tion has now, by the Swedish Arctic Expedition, been en- 

 larged by the addition of East Grreenland. Thiis, it seems to 

 belong ex clusively to the Atlantic part of the Arctic Ocean. 



It ranges vertically from a few (5) np to 100 fathoms. 



Lengtli of largest spec. (a female from stat. '26) 39 mm. 



Mysis Latreille 1803. 



This genus, in its widest sense, comprises many species, 

 but it has now been subdivided into several genera, mainly 

 by Sars and Norman (1. c). Latreille's original genus has 

 been restricted by the last author to the species to be men- 

 tioned below and to the well-known fresh-water form Mysis 

 rrlicta LovÉN.
