Onisimus sibiricus Brüggen, 1909 Figure 9 Onisimus sibiricus Brüggen 1909: 8, Gurjanova 1951: 164. Distribution and biology This species was originally described from the Kara Sea (Brüggen 1909), while Gurjanova (1951) added specimens from the Chukotsk Sea. Gurjanova’s map in Atlas Arktiki (Gurjanova 1985) shows a few localities in the Laptev Sea, one in the westernmost East Siberian Sea, and one most unexpected dot in the Norwegian Sea south of Bear Island, but Bryazgin (1987) does not mention the species from his extensive Barents Sea collections, and Tzvetkova & Golikov (2001) only report O. sibiricus from the Kara, Laptev, East Siberian and Chukotsk Seas, not from the Barents Sea. Thus, the distribution area, as presently known, seems to stretch from the Kara Sea almost to the Bering Strait, with most records in quite shallow water. O. sibiricus has been collected from a wide array of bottom substrates (Golikov & Tzvetkova 1994, data from Chaun Bay, East Siberian Sea).
