 expedition to Spitzbergen and East Greenland 1900. 



By Dr. Einak Lönnberg. 



Communicated 11 December 1902. 

 Revised by Chr. Aurivii,lius. 



The zoological expedition to the Arctic Sea, Spitzbergen, 

 Jan Mayen and East-Greenland 1900 under the direction of Mr. 

 G. KoLTHOFF made a fairly rieh coUection of Pycnogonids. ^) It 

 does not contain any new species, but as especially the region 

 at and ofF the coast of East-Greenland was very little known 

 before, there are several zoogeographical news of some import- 

 ance. I think therefore that the foUowing short list might 

 deserve to be pubiished. 



Cordylochele brevicoUis G. O. Särs. 



1900 Stat. 18: East Greenland, long. 18' 40' W., lat. 74° 30' N., 



SE. of the Whalerus-island, 80 — 100 m. miid and 



stones. 1 spec. 

 » Stat. 17: East Greenland, Mackenzie Bay (N. of Franz Joseph 



fiord). 12 — 35 m. mud. 2 spec. 

 * Stat. 27: East Greenland, Franz Joseph fiord, outer part of the 



Muskox-fiord, 220 m. 3 spec. 



This species which is easily recognized on its short neck is 



an addition to the fauna of Greenland and was hitherto only 



known from Northern Norway, Wadsö and the Kära Sea. 



') In the following list are nlso reported aboiit some specimens collected by 

 the Arctic Expedition 1899 under the direction of Profes.sor A. G. Nathoust.
