A glance at fig. 6 shows thai this suggestion is wrong. In spite of the rather intensive investiga ti<ms carried out along the Icelandic coasts during the later decades, the species till now has not been found at the coasts and alsn not on the coastal banks of Iceland. It thus seems evident that Scalpellum scalpellum in some waj has been prevented from occupying tin- whole territory which seems to afford tin- ecological conditions required by the spei It has been able to traverse tin- Atlantic Stream from Scotland to the Faroes, but only one casual find may indicate that it- nut posts have spread along the Faroe-Iceland ridge ami have reai bed the outskirts of the submarine Icelandic plateau.
