the same coast, and one of these specimens was given to me by him. In the 

 British Museum is a very fine specimen dredged by Mr. George Barlee off

 and by the ' Porcupine ' Expedition in the Shetland Sea. 



Off Holy Isle, Northumberland {G. Hodge) ; N.E. of Shetland, lat. 61° 

 15' N., long. 1° 44' W., 267 fathoms {' Porcwpine,' 1869, Stat. &^) \

 Grinnell Laud {Miers) ; Franz Josef Land {Heller) ; Barents Sea and Faroe 

 Channel [Hoek) ; East Greenland (Lonnhercf).

The 'Triton' dredging referred to is within the British Area, and Hoek

 which is also in the warm area and within the boundary of our fauna.
