Occurrence. The S/S Thor has gathered a few specimens of this interesting form, viz.: 



*4/ 6 1905 St. 82 5i°oo L. N. n°43 L. W. Yt. 800 M. Wire 8 f?, 1 fd\ 2 y? (V).

 2 % 1905 St. 88 48°o9 Iv. N. 8°30 h. W. Yt. 300 M. Wire 3 f ?. 



This species has been recorded from the west coast of Ireland, from the mid and south Atlantic, 

 from the Mediterranean, the Red Sea, the Indian Ocean, the Malay Archipelago and the Pacific Ocean. 



Remarks. In spite of the greater size I regard this species as identical with that described 

 bv Giesbrecht. 



I am much indebted, to Mr. Norman H. Beale, who has kindly undertaken the revision of 

 the language of this paper, as well as to Messrs. Hendriksen, who have taken great trouble in the
