A young male specimen taken by the ' Triton ' in the 

 Faroe Channel in 1882, the exact locality not preserved.

The Faroe Channel specimen is a very young male. Full- 

 grown females from Naples, whence Claus procured the small 

 male which he called Thamyi-is mediterranea, agree with 

 Stebbing's description and figures and those of Chevreux of 

 B. crustulum. It also seems questionable whether T. glohiceps, 

 Claus, is a valid species. The occurrence of this genus so far 

 north as the Faroe Channel is very interesting. It was taken 

 in the towing-net at a depth of several hundred fathoms.]
