Colour: Cuticle of the scapus greenish with a faint violet- coloured substratum, capitulum blue-violet, margin paler, ten- tacles intense blue-violet with reddish extremities. Oral disc blue- violet with lighter-coloured rays and a lighter-coloured annulus round the mouth (). Dimensions in contracted state: Spec. 1) breadth of the pedal x 1 cm, length of the body about cm. Spec. 2) breadth of the pedal 1 X cm, length of the body cm. Occurrence: 80°'N. 8"28'E. 475 m. Temperature at the bottom ° (Norw. N. Atl. Exped.) 2 specimens. Exterior aspect: The pedal disc is well developed and cover- ed with a cuticle. In the contracted state the body forms a low conns. The column is divisible into scapus and scapulus, the former provided with a cuticle, to which foreign bodies are attached. The scapus is probably provided with weak tenaculi, because the ectoderm was verv low in several places. As the ectoderm was more here than in other parts, it is probable that the species has tenaculi, so much the more as the cells seem to be chitinized in the lower parts of the ectoderm. I have not observed any cinclides in my sections which, however, does not prove that such may be present. In the contracted state the scapulus is smooth and provided with loni;itudinal furrows. The marjiin is distinct. The tentacles are short, conical, the outer tentacles considerably sma
