and Porsanger Fjord (but in no other Norwegian fjord, nor at 
any part of Iceland, where it might be supposed before hand 
to occur along the north coast as also in Danmark Strait). 
Thus the species is mainly arctic, with the only exception of 
the occurrence at the Atlantic side of N. America; it seems to 
be almost circumpolar, although with a rather remarkable in- 
terruption by the waters W. of Greenland. It is mainly littoral, 
at any rate occurring only in shallow waters or in moderate depths, 
ranging from a few to 180 Fathoms, and often found in bottom 
temperatures below the freezing point.
