This is one of the most common species of the genus, occurring usu- ally in the deeper water, as is shown elsewhere. It has occurred at 44 stations in the material, rang- ing in depth from 78 to 1,560 fathoms (143 to 2,853 meters), the average 475 fathoms (869 meters). Bottom temperatures are given at 27 stations, rangmg from ° F. to ° F. (° C. to ° C), the average being ° F. (° C). Specimens are not common at \ any of the stations. They were found mostly in the deeper water of the Sulu Sea, China Sea, and between the islands; also ui the region to the south, in Sibuko Bay, Borneo; Gulf of Tomini, Celebes; Molucca; between Gillolo and Makyan Island; off Bouro Island; Molucca Sea; Flores Sea; Gulf of Boni; and Macassar Strait.
