Rem.: According to Jespersen (1939, p.76) this species must rather be characteristic as an Atlantic form, it also occurs in arctic areas. It has been met at Spitsbergen (T. Scott, 1903). In West Greenland waters it has been identified as far north as in Melville Bugt (74°55'N, 62°45'W) by jespersen, 1923.
