at two stations north of the Faroes and two stations
southwest of the Faroes (Hansen, 1908). »Michael
Sars«: Stn 82 (1902), 61° 09’ N, 9° 54’ W, vertical
haul at 200-150 m, bottom depth >1000 m (Grieg,

were probably caught in the water column.
Areas: Deep water all around the Faroes (Fig. 3).
Depth range: over bottoms at 360-1500 m.
Temperature: measured near bottom at two stns, -0.9 to
-0.8 °C.
Bottom water masses: AW (2 stns), AI (9 stns), and
NW (4 stns).
Atlantic distribution: From c. 71°N, Norway to 29° S,
Namibia (Macpherson, 1991) and 33-35° S, South
