the west. The discovery of this specimen at point Barrow extends the range o 

 this species considerably to the east. 



Juvenile specimens of some form of Pseudalibrotus were obtained at Station 

 40yj 506 (both in Dolphin and Union strait), and 56a, (Harrison bay, Alaska), 

 but any specific identification of such specimens would be very doubtful.

 specimen. 



This species is represented by a single badly preserved specimen which 

 differs only shghtly from Chevreux's figure. His specimen was 12 mm. long, 

 while those obtained on the Tjalfe Expedition were 25 mm. The present speci- 

 men measures about 5 mm. which indicate that it is quite immature. The 

 presence of a double row of calceoli on each antenna would seem to indicate a 

 male. Chevreux's specimen apparently did not have the calceoli, but he was 

 not certain that it was a male. The eyes in our specimen are not present, as 

 nearly all of the internal organs have disappeared, leaving the interior entirely 

 empty. The 3rd uropods have the rami much narrower and the inner ramus 

 proportionately shorter than in Chevreux's figure. The type specimen was 

 obtained off the Azores, in water 0-3000 meters depth; the specimen obtained 

 by the Helga came from the west coast of Ireland, 1,200 fathoms, and the speci- 

 mens collected by the Tjalfe Expedition were from the southern coast of Green-
