1898—1902. No. 20.] BRACHIOPODS AND MOLLUSCS. 15 
Tellina torelli has not previously been found in the waters west 
and north of Baffin Bay. According to Jensen the species was pre- 
viously only known to occur on the west and east coasts of Greenland, 
at Spitzbergen, and in the Kara Sea. 
Tellina, macoma, moesta, DesHayEs. 
Locality: 
July 26. 1900. West side of the entrance to Stordalen, Havnefjord, about 20m. Clay. 
Sept. 20. ,, The head of the Gaasefjord, 6—40 m. Clay with small stones. 
Aug. 2 1901. — _ — » about 40 m. 
Aug. 16. Pa _ _ = , about 14 m. 
The species seems to be very scarce, as with the exception of a 
pair of loose shells only 6 whole specimens were obtained, three of 
which were alive. These latter and the largest of the dead specimens 
measure :

The specimens are rather over middle size, since tellina moesta 
according to Jensen has a maximum size of 34.5 mm. They are almost 
exactly similar to the specimen from the east coast of Greenland which 
he has depicted (tab. 1, fig. 4, a, d). 
Tellina moesta was also previously unknown in the waters west 
and north of Baffin Bay. JeNseN states that the species was previously 
known to occur at Baffin Land, on the west and east coasts of Green- 
land, at Spitzbergen and at Novaya Zemlya as well as in the Kara Sea, 
Siberian Polar Sea, Bering Sea and at Alaska. Tellina moesta is 
thus a high-arctic circumpolar species. 
Among a number of molluscs taken by the Michael Sars in 1901 
at Green Harbour, Spitzbergen, 150 m., in addition to several tellina 
calcaria 4 specimens of this species were found 12.5—15 mm. long.
