Bela harpwaria has not previously been found in waters north of 
America. On the west coast of Greenland its northernmost limit is 
Riten Bank, Disco Bay (Posset). , 
Trichotropis conica, Miuurr. 
Locality: 
July 22. 1900. The winter harbour, Havnefjord, about 60 m. Small stones. A 
specimen 13.5 mm. high, which closely resembles the illustration 
of this species given by G. O. Sars. 
Trichotropis conica has not previously been found in waters north 
of America. It was known, however, to occur in the Barents Sea, the 
northern coasts of Norway, Jan Mayen, the east and west coasts of 
Greenland — the northerly limit being Egedesminde — and Cape Sable, 
Nova Scotia. 
Trichotropis borealis, Broprrie & SowErsy. 
Locality: 
Aug. 26. 1898. Bay near Rice Strait. 
Aug. 28. , _ _ ; 
July 22. 1899. The winter harbour, Havnefjord, 16 m. 
July 22. 1900. — = — , about 60 m. Small stones. 
Aug. 1. , Off the entrance to Stordalen, Havnefjord, 10—50 m. Small stones. 
Aug. 30. 1901. The head of the Gaasefjord, 8m. Clay with small stones and 
fucaceae. 
The specimens, which have a height of 13.5—19 mm. most closely 
resemble in form the specimen from the Kara Sea depicted by Cot.m, 
but have a less slender tip. Moreover they have fewer setiferous spiral 
carinae, some specimens being actually quite without setae. The number 
of spiral carinae on the last whorl varies greatly. The lowest number 
is five, of which three are setiferous. The largest number of setiferous 
spiral carinae is four, whereas in Coxtin’s specimen there were five. 
Those specimens which are without setae have comparatively broader, 
more numereus and less prominent spiral carinae. They may be refer- 
red to the variety inermis, Hinps which was found by Nares at Dis- 
covery Bay and Dumbell Harbour, Grinnell Land (Smits). The speci- 
mens from the Fram Expedition are rather larger than the biggest 
specimens of this species hitherto known. 
To the variety acuminata, Jerrreys must be referred an empty 
shell 10.5 mm. long, which differed from the rest in having a more 
slender form and its last whorl less ventricose.
