Pflngia nnrlilura is a holoplanktonic medusa, independent of the .sea bottom; it is widely distributed and ver)' common in the surface layers of the Mediterranean anrl the warm parts of the .\tlrtiitic; the specimen taken by the "Dana" (St. 4201) in a haul with SfifK't m wire out was undoubtedly caupht during the hauling in of the net. During the "Michael .Sars" expedition in 1!)10 this medusa was found in several localities across the Atlantic between the edge of the Newfoundland Bank and the mouth of the Ciiannel, a httle .south of Lat. .50° N., and the two stations, where it was taken by the "Dana", are within the same range. It is very abun- dant in the Bay of Biscay, whence it is frequently carried into the mouth of the Channel and northwards along the western coasts of Ireland and Scotland, sometimes even right to the Norwegian coast. .According to V.
