The greatest size recorded of the female without uiarsupium is 56-5 mm. According to the 

 literature it lives on GaJus morrhua and Somniosus microcfphalus\ Dr. Joh. Schmidt took a fine male, 

 45 mm. long, on Cfntrophorus squamosus. 



Occurrence. Not taken by the "IngolP. But it was recorded from Iceland (Sch. & Mcin.), 

 and the above-named specimen from Cenlrophorus was secured south-west of the Faroes in I^at G^oS* N., 

 Long. 9 28' W., 377 fath. 



Distribution. A couple of specimens secured at the north coast, and a third specimen at 

 the west coast of Jutland (Meinert, H. J. Hauscni. At Norway taken in the Christiania Fjord and at 

 a few places on the south and west coasts, northwards to Trondhjem Fjord (G. O. Sars). At Great

The greatest female without marsupium recorded in the literature was 43 mm. long, the greatest 

 male 36 mm. But at Egedesminde, West Greenland, the Rev. Sorensen has secured a distended female 

 without marsupium measuring 47 mm. Females with marsupium were hitherto unknown, but as al- 

 ready stated, the "IngolF has captured five such females at three stations; one among them is only 

 32-3 mm. long, but the two largest specimens are 40 mm. long. -- It has been taken several times on 

 Xomniosus microcepkalus.

According to Schiodte & Meinert it has been taken frequently at West Greenland, but only 

 two special localities were recorded, viz, Umanak, in Lat 7O4o' N., and Hundcoerne near Egedesminde, 



Lat 68*42' N. Later it has been recorded from Lille Karajok Fjord, Lat 7o2o' N. (Vanhoffen), and the
