Three specimens of this species were dredged ofl' Point Franklin, in 13 i'atbonis. August 31, 1883. 



The species has been recorded from Spitsbergen, Finland, Iceland, Greenland, and from the 

 North American coast as far south as Grand Manan. The Vega Expedition obtained it at various 

 points on the northeast coast of Siberia from the month of the Taimyr Kiver to Bering Sea. 



2. FOLYNOE ISLANDICA Hansen. 



Two specimens were dredged with the other Polijnocs off Point Franklin, in 13i fathoms, 

 August 31, 1883. 



This species has been united with P. scabra by Wiren (loc. cit.), but the specimens we obtained 

 agreed so closely with Hansen's description, and differed so much from our specimens of scabra, 

 that 1 have concluded it best to record it as a distinct species. 



It was originally described by Hansen from specimens taken in the North Atlantic. 



3. POLYNOE SARSI (Kinberg) TWel. 



Four smiill specimens of this species were obtained August 9, 1883, on one of the sandy patches 

 near the station, in about 3 fathoms of water. 



It has been recorded from the sea near England, the Baltic, Norway, Greenland, the Gulf of 

 Saint Lawrence, and New England. The Swedish Expedition obtained it at various points along the 

 northern coast of Siberia from the Kara Sea to the Vega's winter quarters.
