Its geographical distribution is quite different from that of either the Cod or Haddock, its northern range, at least in the Eastern Atlantic, being fully as wide as that of the Cod, the species having been found in the northern part of Spitzbergen, beyond the parallel of 80", and on the arctic coast of Europe. It rarely enters the Baltic. Bloch records a specimen from Lubeck, and it is said to occur on the coast of Pomerania. Concerning the limits of its southern range authorities differ. Giinther places this at latitude 46° in the Bay of Biscay, while others claim that it enters the Mediterranean. Canestrini states that it has been observed at Taranto. It does not appear, however, that the species is abundant south of the English channel. It occurs about Iceland and on the west coast of Davis Straits, where specimens were obtained by Sir Edward Parry on his first voyage. North of Newfoundland it does not seem to be very abund- ant, while to the south the limit appears to be in the vicinity of Nantucket Shoals, where specimens are occasionally taken by the cod smacks.
