A single adult female individual was obtained from a Danish 

 trader at Niakornet. 



The synonyma of this species, which appears to be as variable 

 as it is common, is given at such length by Boeck (I. c), that it 

 appears unnecessary to reproduce it in full ; and I must refer to 

 his work for further information on the subject. It is commonly 

 distributed throughout the IS". Atlantic, British, Scandinavian, and 

 Greenland seas.
