62 CRUSTACEA MALACOSTRACA. IV. 



and down to 53 58 fath. (Zimmer, Ohlin) ; in the Murnian Sea (Breitfuss) ; at a number of places on the west 

 and south coast of Novaya Zemlya and in the straits to the Kara Sea, 4 6 and down to 30 70 fath. (Stux- 

 berg, Stappers); in the Kara Sea and eastwards in the Sibirian Polar Sea to Long. 8oV 2 E., 10 to 50 fath. 

 (Stuxberg). 



From Arctic America it is recorded by Sars, viz. from Jones Sound, Lat. jb2()' N., Long. 84O4' W., 

 and from Smith Sound, Rice Strait; Ohlin possessed it from three places on the east coast of Baffin Land 

 between Lat. 72^8' N. and Lat. 7i57' N., 5 10 and down to 10 28 fath. Caiman records it from near 

 Nain, Labrador, and from off Newfoundland, Lat. 474o' N., 206 fath. 



Thus D. scorpioides is an arctic species, which generally has been taken in shallow water, but sometimes 

 occurs in 50 to 150 fath., and the greatest depth recorded is 206 fath.

Occurrence. Taken by the "Ingolf" at two stations. 



Davis Strait: Stat. 31 : Lat. 6635' N., Long. 5554' W., 88 fath., temp. 1.6; i specimen. 



East of Iceland: Stat. 101 : Lat. 6623' N., Long. I2O5' W., 537 fath., temp. 0.7; i specimen. 



It has been recorded from Murchison Sound, West Greenland, 50 fath. (Ohlin), and from four places 

 off West Greenland in Baffin Bay and Davis Strait between Lat. 7iio' N. and Lat. 65!!' N. (H. J. Hansen; 

 K. Stephensen). The Ilnd Amdrup-Expedition secured it two times at East Greenland, viz. north of Stewart 

 Land, ab. Lat. 7O3o' N., 158 fath., and at ab. Lat. 7428' N., Long. I536' W., no fath.; Ohlin recorded it 

 from Hurry Inlet, Scoresby Sound, Lat. 7O43' N., 37 fath. 



Distribution. At Norway taken only in Porsanger Fjord and Varanger Fjord, thus the most 

 northern and north-eastern Fjords, in about 100 fathoms. (G. O. Sars). Sars recorded it from a station some- 

 what north-east of Varanger, Lat. 7O36' N., Long. 3235' E., 148 fath., temp. 1.9; and from a more northern 

 station: Lat. 7325' N., Long. 3i3o' E., 197 fath., temp. 2.2; Ohlin recorded it from Lat. 7327' N., Long. 

 23!!' E., 247 fath., temp. 2.67. It has been taken seven times at both sides of Spitzbergen, northwards 

 to Lat. 8ii4' N., in depths from 5 to 231 fath. (Zimmer, Ohlin, G. O. Sars) ; furthermore five times in Barents 

 Sea, between Long. 223o' E., and 45i8' E., 120 to 220 fath. (Hoek); between Franz Joseph Land and 

 Novaya Zemlya (Heller) ; in Matotschkin Schar from 5 15 and down to 30 70 fath. (Stuxberg) ; in the Kara 

 Sea from 32 to 89 fath. (Stuxberg, H. J. Hansen), and somewhat more eastwards in the Polar Sea to ab. Long. 

 838' E. in 22 to 26 fath. (Stuxberg). Finally it has been recorded by Ohlin from the east side of Baffin Land: 

 Lat. 72.8' N., Long. 742o' W., ro 28 fath. When Lo Bianco records it from the Mediterranean, it must 

 be due to a wrong determination.
