but was taken a considerable distance to the south of Eranz- 

 Josef Land. It was dredged in lat. 77° 53' N., long. 53° 16' E. 

 (or almost midway between Novaya Zemlya and Northbrook 

 Island), and at a depth of 130 fathoms. Heller records thia 

 species from Franz-Josef Land. 



Grenus Acanthostepheia, BoecJc, 1870. 



ACANTHOSTEPHEIA MaLMGRENI (Goes). 



1865. AmpMthonotus Malmgreni, Goes (32), p. 10, fig. 17. 



This species was represented by a single specimen dredged in 

 the vicinity of West Bay, in from 2 to 10 fathoms, on July 2nd, 

 1897. Mr. Stebbing records Acanthostepheia from lat. 75° 14' 

 N., long. 44° 26' E., as well as from other parts of Barents Sea ; 

 it has also been recorded from Stor Fjord and other parts of the 

 Spitzbergen coast by Goes, and from West Greenland by Hansen. 

 The peculiar conformation of the eyes in this species gives it a 

 somewhat outre appearance. 



Genus Paeamphithoe, Bruzelms, 1859. 



Paeamphithoe pulchella (Xroi/er). 



1846. Amphitho'e pulchella, Kroyer (47), pi. 10. fig. 2. 



Two specimens were captured with the dredge off West Bay, 

 Cape Flora, at a depth of about 8 fathoms, on July 24th, 1897. 

 FarampJiitTioe pulchella^ though widely distributed, seems to be 

 scarce in the Arctic seas ; but appears to be more or less common 

 on the west and north of Norway. 



Paeamphithoe bicuspis {Kroyer). 



1838. Amphitho'e bicuspis, Kroyer (41), p. 273, pi. 2. fig. 10. 



This species was obtained amongst some small Crustacea 

 dredged in West Bay, in from 2 to 10 fathoms, on July 2nd, 

 1897. This species is widely distributed in the Arctic seas, and 

 is also included in the British fauna.

The most prominent difference between this and P. bicuspis is 

 that suggested by the name — this species having only one dorsal
