G-angfpdderne (se Fig. 2) er spinkle og forlamgede, 
omtrent 5 Grange lmngere end Legemet, og besatte med 
korte, spredte Haar, 2det Hofteled er over dobbelt saa 
langt som de 2 ovrige tilsaramen, Laarleddet omtrent 1 j 3 
lamgere end Hoftepartiet og temmelig opsvulmet bos Hunnen. 
lste Ltegled er kjendelig lmngere end Laarleddet, og 2det 
do., som ssedvanlig, det laengste, meget tyndt og noget af- 
siualnende mod Enden. Det terminate Parti af Foden er 
starker® udviklet hos denne Art end bos de ileste o\i'ige 
og omtrent halvt saa langt som 2det Lagled. Tarsalled- 
det .(se Fig. 2 g) er af linear Form og adskilligt lmngere 
end Fodleddet. Dette sidste afsmalnes successivt noget 
mod Enden og er i Inderkanten besat med tynde, ncesten 
borsteformige Tomer, bvoraf de 4 — 5 inderste pleier at 
vmre lsengst. Endekloen er srerdeles starlet forlsenget, 
Hasten af Fodleddets Lrnngde , leformigt krummet ved 
Basis og ender i en sylskarp Spids. Bikloerne er derimod 
overordentlig smaa. neppe mere end ’/id saa l ail S e som 
Endekloen. 
De ydre AUgmasser (se Fig. 2 b) er forholdsvis ikke 
synderlig store, uregelmsessigt kugleformige, livorimod de 
i dem indeholdte iEg er storre end smdvanligt. De er 
smdvanligvis fmstede omkring 4de Led af de falske Fodder, 
dog ikke sjelden til ote Led; i enkelte Tilfielde er de til- 
stede i dobbelt Antal paa liver af disse Lemmcr. 
Forekomst. Et enkelt Exemplar af denne Art blev 
under Nordh. Expeditionens sidste Togt taget omtrent 
midtveis mellem Finmarken og Beeren Eiland (Stat. 290) 
paa 191 F. D. Jeg har imidlertid bavt Anledning til at 
undersoge en hel Del Exemplarer af samme Art, indsain- 
lede under Nordenskjolds Expedition 1875 paa torskjellige 
Punkter i det kariske Hav; Dybden fra 20 til 60 Favne. 
Udbredning. Arten er f'orst beskeven af Hoek fra 
Barents Seen efter et enkelt mindre vel conserveret Exem- 
plar og er senere at Dr, Hansen anfort fia det kaiiske 
Hav. Andetsteds er den ikke bleven observeret; men de 
ovenanforte Lokaliteter er nok til at stemple den som en 
regte arktisk Form. 
The ambulatory legs (see fig. 2) are slender and 
elongated, about 5 times longer than the body, and beset 
with short, scattered hairs. The 2nd coxal joint is more 
than twice as long as the 2 other ones taken togethei , the 
femoral joint is about ’/» longer than the coxal part, and 
is rather swollen in the female. The 1st tibial joint is ap- 
preciably longer than the femoral one, and the 2nd is, as 
usual, the longest, very slender, and tapers somewhat towards 
the extremity. The terminal part of the leg is more fully 
developed in this than in most of the other species, and 
is about half the length of the the 2nd tibial joint. The 
tarsal joint (see fig. 2 g) is linear in form and considerably 
longer than the propodal joint. The latter joint diminishes 
successively, somewhat, towards the end, and is beset ou the 
inner edge with delicate, well-nigh setiform spines, of which 
the 4 or 5 innermost are usually the longest. The terminal 
claw is particularly elongated, almost the length of the 
propodal joint, falciformly arcuate at the base, and termin- 
ates in a point as sharp as an awl. The auxiliary claws, 
on the other hand, are remarkably small, scarcely more 
than 'ho of the length of the terminal dawn 
The outer egg-masses (see fig. 2 b) are, relatively, not 
very large, irregularly globular in form, whereas the ova 
they contain are larger than usual. They aie geneiallj 
adherent round the 4th joint of the false legs, not in- 
frequently, however, to the 5th joint; in some cases they 
are present in double numbers on each of those limbs. 
Occurrence. A single specimen of this species was 
taken on the last cruise of the North Atlantic Expedition, 
about midway between Finmark and Beeren Eiland (Stat. 
290), at a depth of 191 fathoms. I have however, had the 
opportunitv of examining a great many specimens’ of the 
same species collected on Nordenskjold’s Expedition in 187o, 
from various localities in the Kara Sea; depth 20 to 60 
fathoms. 
Distribution. The species has been first described by 
Hoek, from a single, not very well preserved, specimen taken 
in Barents Sea, and it has since been recorded by Dr. Hansen 
from the Kara Sea. It has not been observed elsewhere, 
but the localities given above suffice to establish it as a 
true Arctic form.
