EUROPEAN POEMS OP THE CIEOLAKINiE. 343 



Occurrence. — In 1890 I gave a detailed criticism of the 

 synonymical confusion and full account of the localities, dividing 

 these into two portions : one comprising those which are certain 

 or at least highly prohable, the other portion including a number 

 of doubtful statements. Since 1890 Dollfus has published 

 some localities of importance, but otherwise little has been 

 added to our knowledge. In Mr. Dollfus's collection I have 

 found material from some new places : Belle-Isle (of£ the 

 south-western coast of Brittany), 60 and 100 metres ; Firth 

 of Clyde ; and Villefranche. Eurther, I have seen nine 

 specimens taken on bait on long-lines in lat. 61° 6' N., long. 

 9° 21' W., 210 fathoms, cruise of 'Michael Sars ' in 1902 

 (Cand. mag. Ad. Jensen.). Probably some of the localities in 

 North-western France and Southern England mentioned in the 

 literature refer in reality not to this, but to the following species. 

 The specimens from the Adriatic referred by Heller, Stalio, and 

 Stossich to C. hirtipes, M.-Edw., and mentioned with much doubt 

 by me in 1890, probably belong to 0. neglecta, H. J. Hansen ; 

 the specimen from Mr. Krupp's collection, mentioned by Lo 

 Bianco in 1902 (Mitt. Zool. Stat. Neap. xvi. p. 258) as G. hirtipes, 

 is probably C. horealis. 



Our present knowledge may be summed up as follows. The 

 species has been taken in various places in the Kattegat, 13-29 

 fathoms ; along the southern and western coasts of Norway " at 

 least to the Trondhjem Ejord" (G. 0. Sars); in lat. 64° 48' N., 

 long. 6° 32' E. (Gr. O. Sars) ; Shetland Isles (Norman) ; several 

 places on the coasts of Scotland and Ireland (various authors) ; on 

 the northern part of the western coast of France ; in the Medi- 

 terranean at Villefranche, and at Naples, 25 fathoms (Hansen), 

 and, according to Dollfus, in various places in the western half 

 of that sea at depths ranging from 280 to 1210 metres. It has 

 also been found off the eastern coast of North America between 

 lat. 32° and 33° N., long. Ilf and 78|° W., 233 and 229 fathoms 

 (Harger) ; finally, according to Miss Eichardson, " off Cape 

 Florida," but this statement is, in my opinion, rather doubtful 

 and needs confirmation. 



Remarks. — This species is easily distinguished from all other 

 forms hitherto known by the characters pointed out in the eyes, 

 epimera, seventh thoracic legs, uropoda, and armature of last 

 abdominal segment.
