The type was taken in the Bay of Biscay by the ' Porcu- 

 pine' and 'Travailleur ' expeditions, and together with the two 

 varieties by the ' Voringen ' expedition. Its range has been 

 extended as far south as coast of Marocco and the Canary 

 Isles by the ' Talisman ' (Locard) .

In the ' Depths of the Sea ' this species is spoken of as " an 

 interesting addition to the already famous Shetland fauna," 

 but under the woodcut is written " Faroe Channel." Un- 

 fortunately no station is mentioned, and therefore at present, 

 until Dr. Jeffreys's MS. is published, some doubt must 

 attach to its being found in our area. Jeffreys gave me a 

 fine living example from the dredging of 1869, but unfor- 

 tunately without station also. 



On the West Norwegian coast I have dredged it in Bergen 

 Fiord ; off Sartoro, in 15-40 fath. ; Solems Fiord, Floro, in 

 100-250 fath. J and near the mouth of the Hardanger Fiords
