Zoology of Barents Sea. 271 



Astrophyton Lamarckii, Mull, et Tr. 



. Respecting the young specimen of this species taken in 

 lat. 76° 58' N., long. 45° 40' E., in 110 fms., the Rev. A. M. 

 Norman remarks as follows : — " The tubercles on the ribs of 

 the disk make this, at first sight, to look like A. Agassizii ; but 

 the arms are not granular as in that species, and I therefore 

 conclude that with advancing growth the tubercles on the ribs 

 would disappear, instead of being developed into the irregular 

 spines of Agassizii. I therefore suppose this specimen to be 

 the young of A. Lamarckii.''''

 were no examples in Mr. Grant's collections : — Haplodactyla 

 arctica, Marenzeller ; Psolus Fabricii, D. & K. ; Pteraster
