occurring in lesser quantity. As regards Mysidae, the finding of Boreo- 
mysis arctica in the inner portion of Bredefjord, at great depths (700— 
800 m. w., 250—550 m.) was altogether unexpected. This species is thus 
a true character form in the deep warm water, and furnishes additional 
proof of the fact that the Atlantic water penetrates right up to the base 
of the fjord. 
Among Hyperiidea, Parathemisto oblivia is by far the most numer- 
ous, frequently amounting to 80°/, of all Hyperiidea; Euthemisto com- 
pressa, also, with E. bispinosa, were fairly numerous, especially at 500— 
800 m. w. On the other hand, E. libellula, was least numerous, which, 
in the case of an arctic species, was only to be expected; it is found 
however, right down to 800 m. w. 
Among the Copepoda, Pseudocalanus elongatus appears as a cha- 
racter form for the arctic surface water, making up the greater portion 
of what I have noted in the list as small Calanidae. Beyond abt. 100— 
125 m. however, Calanus finmarchicus is the character form, although
