The h}-droid {Perigonimus rcpens) is a littoral form, but the duration of life of the medusa is long enough to allow the animal to Ijc carried rather far out at sea by the currents. Possibly the occurrence at the south coast of Iceland is due to transportation with the Irminger Current. On the cruise of the "Amauer Hansen" in 1913 (Kranip 1920b, p. 3) a number of specimens were found on two of the easternmost stations, in the neighbourhood of Rockall, but the species was lacking farther west in the Atlantic. At the coasts of northern Europe, Leuckartiara ociona must be designated as a southern species, sometimes carried by the warm currents (the Gulf Stream and the Irminger Current) into northern-boreal areas, but never into the arctic regions. The medusa also lives in the Mediterranean (Hartlaub 1913, Kramp 1924) and at the east coast of North America (Hartlaub). According to the latter author, it has been found in various localities in the Pacific and in the Malayan Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Danish Ingolf-Expedition (1895-1896); Københavns universitet.
