Professor Valery Bryazgin (1973), however, gives the following details about his Storfjorden specimen. Barents sea specimens vary from Gurjanova’s description of Okhotsk Sea material in several ways: The surface is without granular black pigment, but has small pits with microscopic setules. Eyes light, almost invisible in alcohol. Antenna 1 peduncle article1 with large dorso-distal protuberance, that is longer than peduncle articles 2+3.
