Occurrence. T. finmarchicus ha.s been taken by the "lugolf at three localities. 

 West Greenland: Mouth of Ameralik Fjord, at Godthaab, 5—70 fm., shells; 16 spec. 



— — Inner end — — - — muddy bottom; 11 spec. 



Jan Mayen: St. 115: Lat. 70°05' N., Long. 8° 26' W., 86fra., temp. 0.1°; large number of specimens. 

 Furthermore T. fininarchiciis has been taken at Iceland by various Zoologists and at Jan Mayen 

 and East Greenland b\' the second Amdrup Expedition. The localities are given here. 



West Iceland: 0nundar Fjord, 11 — 12 fm., ooze and stones with a few algae; 2 spec. Mag. W. 



Lundbeck. 

 East Iceland: Faskrud Fjord, 20 — 50 fm., blue clay; 7 spec. Mag. R. Horring. 



— — Nord Fjord, 40 fm.; i spec. Mag. R. Horring. 



— — Bakke Fjord, 8 — 10 fm. ; black sand; i spec. Dr. A. C. Johansen. 

 Jan Mayen: 50 — 60 fm. and 55 fm., 17 spec. IF' Amdrup Exp. 



East Greenland: Cape Dalton: Lat. 69° 24.6' N., ab. Lat. 23V2 W., 9 — n fm.; 11 spec.

Distribution. T. finmarchicus was previously known from Vadso in Varanger Fjord (North- 

 eastern Norway), where it occurred in 30 fathoms (G. O. Sars), and from Northbrook Island, Franz 

 Joseph Land (Th. Scott). — The list given above shows that it has a wide distribution in the arctic 

 and subarctic areas, while it is not known from the southern and south-western coasts of Iceland or 

 from the Fseroes. 



It may be mentioned here that from the "Ingolf Stat. 104: West of Iceland: Lat. 66° 23' N., 

 Long. 7° 25' W., 957 fm., temp. -=- 1.1°, I have 2 .specimens (an immature female and an immature 

 male), of which especially the characteristic female certainly belongs to V. finmarchicus, though jud- 

 ging from their occurrence at that deep-sea station it would have been expected that they belonged 

 to the closely allied T. mixtiis u. sp. It is very improbable that 7'. finmarchicus, which has been 

 taken at many localities in depths from 3 to 60 fathoms and never in a depth exceeding 86 fathoms, 

 may occur in a depth of nearly a thousand fathoms; therefore I do not venture to insert that single 

 deep-sea station in the list of localities, fearing that some error has been conmiitted in one way or 

 another, but tlie statement inexplicable at present is mentioned here. 



37. Typhlotanais mixtus n. sp. 



(PI. VI, fig.s. 3a-3f-) 



Female. Body slender, about seven times as long as broad, .seen from above nearly cylindrical 



(fig. 3 a). — Carapace somewhat or considerably longer than the two following segments combined, 



nearly half as long again as broad; lateral margins parallel to near the beginning of their distal 



third, then converging and distinctly convex; the anterior end not quite two-thirds as broad as the 



carapace, with the rostral process soniewhat long, acute.
