Vulva 43,3 %. Only one specimen was secured, a fully developed female. Although this specimen in many respects agrees well with the D. macrodorus of DE MAN, so well that there can be no doubt about its belonging to the subgenus Doryllium, it differs, on the other side, so much from the European form that I have found it natural to establish a new species for the Greenland specimen. Most important is perhaps the size of the Greenland specimen which remarkably exceeds the dimensions indicated for European specimens, the length of which, according to MICOLETZKY, is between 0,9 and 117 mm. But in other respects too it differs rather considerably. In the front, end the body begins to taper at about the level of the base of the oesophagus; it then tapers evenly oeso- till the level of the proximal end of the spear, from where it ... : Published as part of Ditlevsen, Hjalmar, 1927, XXII.
