Disregarding Saccopsis terebellidis, which is not determined with 
certainty, and which is not included in the zoogeographical survey of 
the Danmark Expedition, we arrive at the result that of the 70+ 3 
Malacostraca (Scalpellum Stroemii, which is included, although be- 
longing to the Entomostraca) and Pycnogonida, the “Rink” has 
taken 9 species, i.e. abt. 12°/, of the Atlantic deep sea forms, 
while of the 37 Atlantic Echinodermata, no less than 12 are 
HOWMC!, OR Alois BY, 
One could hardly wish for better proof as to the Atlantic character 
of the waters investigated, especially when it is borne in mind that the 
“Rink” material was drawn from a very restricted area, and collected 
within the space of three months, whereas the lists previously published 
by Dr. Tu. MortENSEN and the present writer in the “Danmark” exped. 
and in the Conspectus include all earlier collections from the whole of 
Greenland, some of which were made at considerable distance from the 
coast. 
In addition to the 22 species above mentioned, the followmg were 
taken by the “Rink” at depths beyond 200m. viz: 
Neohela monstrosa (lives both at negative and posetive temp.) 
Aega ventrosa (mainly boreal and mainly a deep sea species) 
Janira maculosa (mainly boreai, both deep and shallow water) 
Pyecnogonum littorale (mainly boreal, both deep and shallow water) 
Nymphon macrum (mainly boreal, both deep and shallow water) 
—  Stroemii (both boreal and arctic, both deep and shallow water) 
Chaetonymphon hirtipes (both boreal and arctic, depth as arule < 150 m.) 
Heliometra glacialis (mainly arctic, 10—1200 m.) 
Ophioscolex glacialis (mainly arctic, 100—1800 m.) 
Cucumaria calcigera (mainly arctic, 5—500 m.) 
Phyllophorus pellucidus (mainly arctic, 10—380 m.) 
None of these species, however, can, as will be seen from the re- 
marks appended, be regarded as furnishing absolutely certain proof of 
the Atlantic character of the fjords, although Aega ventrosa, lanira ma- 
culosa, Pycnogonum littorale, and Nymphon macrum tend mostly in 
this direction. The 4 Echinodermata are here not of much account, 
being but little sensitive as regards depth or temperature.

Danmark Exped. p. 294; Conspectus p. 313). 
To this group should be added such bottom forms as are not in- 
cluded under Groups 1 and 2.
