The Stations are off the W. Coast of Norway. The species, 
which seem to be closely related to the Isid. elongata (Esper.) 
from the Mediteranean and the Bay of Biscay, has hitherto only 
been found off the coasts and in some of the fjords of Western 
Norway, from Haakelsund (Korsfjord) to Lofoten and Vester- 
aalen (Tranøsund, Lødingen N of 68"), in depths (of the warm 
area) from 200 to 700 M. (ca. 110—400 Fthms.). Its distribu- 
tional area does not seem to reach the limits of that of the 
preceding species; at any rate the two species have not yet 
been caught together. The locality for I. hippuris farthest 
off from the Norwegian coast—as far as I know—is on Longit.
