This species has been reported only from Norway by 
Bonnevie and from Cape Spartel by Billard. JMerholm makes 
it synonymous with Lafoea grandis, 1 but I think there is not good 
basis for so doing. Specimens of L. grandis found in the Van- 
couver Island region have much larger hydrothecse than these 
from Canso and apparently that is true of the specimens re- 
ported from Iceland by Hincks when he gave the original des- 
cription of L. grandis }
