Distribution: — Atlantic Ocean from lat. 37" N. (C. Claus, 1891a, V. VAvUA, 1906) to 

 lat. 37" S. (G. W. MtlLLER, 1906 a). Indian Ocean to lat. 32" S. (G. W. MtlM.KH, 1906 a). 



The finds of the Swedish ,,A n t a r c t i c" expedition are consequently within the limits 

 of this species as stated by previous authors.

This group is certainly (piite a natural one. It comprises only two species, the one de- 

 scribed below and C. discophora, which are very closely related to each other.
