It was later taken by the Prince of Monaco at two stations between the Azores and Portugal, 4020 m. and 4360 m. The "Michael Sars" obtained it in the Bay of Biscay. Freyella sexradiata is therefore an East Atlantic species known up to present time only between 38° 8' and 45° 26'N. and between 9° 20' and 23°36'W. Bathymetrical distribution is 4020 to 4700 m. Beside it, the following species of the genus Freyella occur on the eastern side of the North Atlantic: F. edwardsi from the Bay of Biscay and west coast of Africa, 1786 m.

F. elegans between Nova Scotia and Cape Hatteras, 1115—3700 m. A Freyella was besides taken south of Iceland ("Thor" 1903, stat. 164, 62° 'N. 19°36'W„ 2093 m.), which according to Mortensen1), is closely relative to the last- named species. l) Schmidt: Fiskeriundersogelser ved Island og Faeroerne i som- meren 1903 (1904) p.
