Occurre7we.—T\\o females were obtained from a vertical haul at Station 20044, Grampus, southeast of Nantucket. ^onth Atlantic (Brady) ; Red Sea, Indian Ocean (Thompson and Scott) ; California coast (Esterly); Mediterranean (Giesbrecht); Gulf of Guinea (T. Scott) ; Adriatic (Car, Graeffe, Steuer, Pesta) ; Gulf of Genoa (Brian); Gulf Stream south of Marthas Vineyard (Wheeler). Color.—Body trans- parent and reddish, owing to a distribution throughout the body cavity of numerous small oil globules. Some of these are pale rose color, others pale ferru- ginous-red, and the re- mainder light green. The ovaries and eggs are dark gra}'^ with a reddish tinge; the eyes are deep carmine-red. Female.—Cephalic segment not much longer than wide, with prom- inent posterior corners; fifth segment much narrower than the fourth, with smoothly rounded sides; caudal rami as wide as long, the apical setae nonplumose and very short. First antennae 7-seg- mented and slender; exopod of second antenna replaced by a single seta, which is very elongate and is attached to the end of the basal endopod segment. Each first antenna carries six aesthetasks, two on the third segment, two on the fourth segment, and two at the tip of the sixth segment. Each fifth leg is as long as the exopod of the fourth leg, its distal segment three times as long as the basal, with two elongate apical setae, plumose on the inside, denticulate on the outside, and three much shorter nonplumose outer setae; basal segment with an outer seta representing the outer process; inner expansion entirely lacking. Total length, ,87 mm,. Please note tha
