EOLIS. 591 



This species lives chiefly at the edge of low water, but 

 occurs also deeper. It is found not uncommonly in the 

 Frith of Forth (E. F.) ; in Berwick bay (Johnston) ; and 

 on the Northumberland coast (Alder and Hancock.) We 

 have taken it abundantly in Zetland (E. F). It occurs 

 in many localities elsewhere on the English coast. Also 

 on the north, east, and west of Ireland (W. Thompson). 

 It has a wide range along the European shores of the 

 Atlantic.
