Bays, in 10 to 15 fathoms, on rocky bottoms overgrown with sponges, 
ascidians, hydroids, algse, etc. ; 1864, 1868, 1870, 1872, 1876. Hali- 
fax !, Nova Scotia, 1877 : 18 fathoms, fine sand ; 20 fathoms, shingly ;

Gulf of St. Lawrence (Whiteaves). Square Island !, coast of Labra- 
dor, 15 to 30 fathoms (A. S. Packard, Jr.) Coasts of Grinnell Land 
and Greenland as far north as latitude 81° 44' (Miers). East coast 
of Greenland (Buchholz). Iceland (Kroyer). Along the whole coast 
of North America to Bering Straits (Stimpson) and the Siberian coast

coast of Norway (G. O. Sars). 
Robert Bell, Jr. (Canadian Naturalist and Geologist, iv, p. 210, 
1859) records “a specimen corresponding nearly with Bell’s descrip- 
tion” of Crangon sculptus, from off Cape Chatte, Gulf of St. Lawrence, 
but was probably mistaken in the identification of the species, having 
had most likely Crangon horeas , or perhaps one of the species of 
Sahinea.

Two distinct species have been confounded under the name septem- 
carinata. In one of these the rostrum as seen from above is short 
and obtusely rounded at the tip, and the extremity of the telson is 
subtruncate and armed with a series of eight or more spines or stout 
set* ; in the other species the rostrum is acutely pointed and the 
telson terminates in an acute tip, with one or two spines each side. 
Sabine’s original description and figures show very plainly that he 
had the first of these species, and to this species also Kroyer’s figures 
and descriptions, above referred to, apply. 1 have, however, received, 
from Professor G. O. Sars of Christiania, both species under the name 
Trans. Conn. Acad., Vol. V. 8 January, 1879.
