That they exist, however, is plainly evident from the present material, where in particular certain colonies from Jakobshavn, Greenland, and all those from Bredebugt take up a doubtful intermediate position. Formagigantea (fig. LIV) is a typical arctic (and antarctic) character form, only exceptionally capable of penetrating into the boreal region. It is extremely common in West Greenland waters, and is also known from East Greenland; occasionally also from the north coast of Iceland. Forma typica, on the other iooo m. 1000m Fig. LIV.

In the hatched regions the literature notes a common occurrence of the forma typica. hand, is cosmopolitan, and occurs also, albeit less frequently, in arctic waters. In the boreal area, it is particularly numerous in the eastern parts. Both forms belong to the middle parts of the littoral region, and rarely move down into the deep sea region.

Upright, irregular doubly pinnate colonies with distinctly prominent polysiphonic main stem and main branches. The outer branches are almost regularly pinnately branched often with their minor branches secondarily ramified. The outer branches are divided by indistinct oblique joints into short internodia, having on their distal half a large hydrotheca; th
