 with egg-ball and one with spermatophoij, 3 y? (V), 2 yd* (Y) at Skutnlsfjord and ^s/g? in Gunolfsvig 

 (N. East Iceland) 50 f?, 5 y? (V), 10 y^ (V) and i yd* (IV). 



South-West of Iceland. To the south-west of Iceland 10 mature females, 5 y? (V), 3 mature 

 males and 5 young males (V) were found '3/(, 1896, St. 80, P. 100— o fm. 6i'o2 Lat. N. 29°32 Long. W. 



South of Iceland. To the south of Iceland a single male was taken by the Ingolf Exp. (7/8 

 1896, Cyl. 32, 63°45 Lat. N. 22^37 Long. \V. 2 ?; 2c?); ^/s 1896 a mature female of Ps. gracilis, and from 

 13/j — 19/j. 1896 at three stations females of Ps. clongafus were taken; of the latter young animals (\') 

 were taken at 3 stations ^j^ — 31/5), y$ (IV) at a single station (375 1896) and young animals (III) 30/, 1895 

 and 31/j 1S96. The East Greenland Exp. 1900 has taken a few mature and young females south of 

 Iceland ^5/„. 



In the Icelandish fjords adult males have been taken several times by different collectors. On 

 the north coast it was only taken once [Ingolf Vs 1896 Selvik in Skagafjord 65°58 L. N. I9°50 L. W. 

 PI. 4 y$ (V), I fd", 5 yd* (V), 7 yc? (IV), 10 y (III) and 2 y (II)|. On the east to west coast males were 

 taken 3 times ('3/5 — 26/. 1902), and females as well as juniores (stage II — \') were in several samples 

 found common from '3,', — 26/,. 



South-East of Iceland. In the Icelaiid-Eseroe channel south east of Iceland Ps. gracilis (f$) 

 were taken in four samples between "/s — ^^h ^895 and ^°l^ 1896, and Ps. clongalns (f$ — J") in four samples 

 CVs — ^^U 1895 and 20/j 1896); young animals (IV — Vi were taken three times ("/,;— u/j. 1895 and ^o/, 1896). 

 Several males were foinid in a single samj^le from "/^ vSt. i, V 50—0 fm. 62"30 Lat. N. 8°2i L. W., 

 including 140 i% 23 y$ (\'), 8 y? (IV), 30 fc?, 20 yc? (V) and .5 yd* (IV). From St. 3, 'V,, V.' 100— o fm. 

 II f? and 1 fd' were found and from St. 4, "3/5 1895, V.' 100— o fm. 64°07 L. N. ii°i2 L. W. 37 f?, 3 y? (V), 

 I y? (IV), 2 fd* and 4 yd* (V). From St. 57, 2°/, 1896, V 100— o fm. 63°37 Lat. North i3°02 Long. West, 

 I f?, I y? (V) and 2 fd* were secured. 



North-East of Iceland. To the east and north-east of Iceland as far north as Jan Mayen 

 specimens (f^) of ]'s. gracilis were found in four samples, taken between '"/^ and ^s/^ 1896, and Ps. 

 clongahis in six samples ('"'y — ^ij.^); young animals (IV— V) of the former type from 3 Stat. ("^J-^—^'/j) 

 and of the latter from 9 Stat, ('o';— 25/7 1895); the following stage (III) was taken at 6 Stat. C/;— ^Vs)- 



The East Greenland Expedition 1900 has from "/e to 7? "i the Norwegian Sea between 63°i6 

 Lat. North i°i4 Long. East and 72^30 Lat. N. 6°4i Long. W. collected a few samples containing this 

 species (type: gracilis or clongafus) all taken at the surface (F. or G.). 



The mature female was only taken once (-'V, 12 p. m. F. 33, 64°i7 Lat. North o°5i Long West); 

 young animals (V) were taken in 7 samples, including that from the most northern station, young 

 animals (III- — IV) were found in four samples. As the species was only taken in few specimens, in 

 altogether 7 samples, though one sample was taken each hour day and night from ^i/o to 'o/? as far 

 north as 74*28 Lat. North (15^36 Long. West), there is good reason to regard it as extremely scarce 

 at the surface at the season and in the region mentioned. 



The expedition has taken the Ps. rlorigahis a few times in Nansen's clo.sing net.
