The Danish East-Greenland ExjDedition has, "^;'u 1900 10 jd. ni. F. 346 at the snrface near Kap Dan 

 (Tarsnak Fjord), taken a single adnlt female.

The S/S Thor has, outside the Ingolf area south west of the Faeroes, taken the species at four 

 stations, but at the two only a few adult females.

Distribution. This species has been recorded from the Mediterranean, and from the Atlantic 

 as far north as 55'' L. N. 10° L. W. ; it has been taken b\' the Monaco and b\- the Gauss Expeditions 

 in the Mid and vSouth Atlantic; by the Gauss it has been taken at 45 L. vS. 35 L. E. south of the Cape. 

 It was not taken b\- the Siboga, but Esterl\- records it from the Californiatr Ha\', and based on some- 

 what too small material he draws the following conclusion (1912 p. 311) "e\-identl\', the species moves 

 upwards at night if the numbers taken then as compared with those during the da>- can be taken as 

 representative of the whole population". 



I think we are right in regarding this sj^ecies as in the main an Atlantic one, which frequents 

 the intermedial strata, but occasionally is found from the surface down to a depth of about 1000 meters. 



Remarks. The described species is certainly identical with that described by Criesbrecht, in 

 spite of the larger size, the wanting seta of Le 2 of maxillulae autl the structure of the spines in tlie 

 Basp. II pes IV. The male, which CI eve refers to this species, is ]iossibly identical with mine; his des- 

 cription is too incomplete to settle the question at present. I think that Gicsbrecht is right in refer- 

 ring the small Atlantic si)ecimens of 7^. Ffrssii P>rady to this species, the bigger ones may perhaps be 

 identical with li. rostroiiiagna Wolf.
