But there are yet other Greenland fjords, the investigation of which 

 will unquestionably yield very interesting results; first and foremost, 

 Umanak Fjord which, although it is situated 5 degrees of latitude north 

 of the ridge in Davis Strait yet, according to the Tjalfe Expedition, has 

 bottom water of a temperature above freezing point. 



The most interesting investigation will, however, be that of the great 

 depth in Baffin Bay, as it is a vexed question, how far the fauna there 

 is Arctic or Atlantic. Dr. Тн. Mortensen thinks that he can prove, 

 especially on the basis of the Echinodermata (Meddel, om Grønland, 

 vol. 45, 1910 (1912), pp. 292—93) that the fauna is boreal, while the 

 Malacostraca and the Pycnogonida appear to show that it is arctic with 

 an admixture of a few boreal species (K. Stephensen, Meddel, om 

 Grønland, vol. 45, 1912, pp. 565 — 66) ; as, however, there are about 

 five times as many Malacostraca as Echinodermata in Greenland we 

 may be justified in concluding that the Malacostraca give the more 

 reliable result as regards this point. 



The present paper deals with 70 species in all. (In the following 

 list the figures before the names of the species indicate the number allot- 

 ted to each species). 



Two species are new to science, viz, 



44. Janira Vilhelminæ and 

 62. Monstrilla Wandelii. 



In addition to these, the following eight species are new to Green- 

 land: — 



19. Orchomenella pinguis, 



23. Metopa leptocarpa, 



36. Podocerus pusillus, 



50. Balanus Hameri, 



51, Lepas anatifera, 



56, Centropages hamatus, 



60, Ameira sp., 



61. Amphiascus Giesbrechtii. 



Moreover, the following species should be noted, regarding whose 

 distribution in Greenland only very little was known previously, 

 1 b, Brachyura larva (Hyas coarctatus?), 

 11. Spirontocaris microceros, 

 32. Haploops setosa, 

 39. Paraduhchia typica, 

 42. Mesidothea Sabinei, 



45. Janthe libbeyi, 



46. Nebalia bipes, 



55. Pseudocalanus elongatus (adult and Copepodites), 



57, Acartia longiremis, 

 70, Diaptomus minutus.
