Remarks on Myctophum glaciale (Reinh.). di 
in the areas mentioned above appears at a depth of abt. 100 
metres below the surface. Whether M. glaciale at its northern 
range here exhibits the same feature with regard to size as in 
the Norwegian waters can not be ascertained from the present 
works as measurements are not stated either of the American, 
or of the Iceland and Greenland specimens. From the collections 
of the Kristiania Museum I have seen three specimens from 
Sukkertoppen, W. Greenland; two smaller ones and one very 
large, 70 mm.; AO 7-++ 6, 67. This led me to seek further 
information from the specimens from Greenland in the possession 
of the Zoological Museum of the Copenhagen University. The 
Director of this institution, Professor Dr. Ad. S. Jensen has 
furnished me with the following account of the material now 
preserved in the museum. For this kindness I beg to express 
my sincere thanks.

Together with the three specimens of the Kristiania Museum 
29 specimens in all are known from the west-coast of Greenland. 
Of these no less than 8 specimens have a length greater than 
65 mm., measuring respectively 66, 66, 66, 70, 74, 75, 77 and 
84 mm.; the last-named specimen is to my knowledge the largest 
one hitherto recorded. 
The material from W. Greenland thus corresponds to that 
from the Norwegian Sea with regard to the large size attained
