Distribution. — Arctic coast of Alaska and Siberia southward to Sitka and Kurile Islands; Greenland (Kroyer). Beach to 47 fathoms. In the U. S.

Within these limits it is very abundant and was taken at 21 stations of the Albatross^ at 8 stations by Lieutenant G. M. Stoney, U. S. N., at 7 stations by W. H. Dall, at 2 stations by the U. S. R. S. Coriuin, off the mouth of the Yukon by E. W. Nelson, and at Cape Smith by the Point Barrow Expedition. Also taken at the following localities: Shahafka Cove, Kadiak, 12-14 fathoms (W. H. Dall). Sitka Harbor, 15 fathoms (W. H. Dall). Avacha Bay, Kamchatka (L. Stejneger and Albatross; also recorded by Stimpson). Rakovaya Bay, Avacha Bay {Albatross). Off Kamchatka, 12-13 fathoms {Albatross stations 3776, 3777, 3779, 3780).
