Summary: | Halirages fulvocinctus (M. Sars, 1859) Original combination: Amphithoë fulvocincta M. Sars, 1859; type specimens collected ''near Slaatholmen in the Lofotens and near Tromsø, between 1 and 10 fathoms'' [2 and 18 metres] (M. Sars 1859). Synonyms: Pherusa tricuspis Stimpson, 1863, type locality: Littleton Island, eastern shore of the Smith Sound, 78.5°N (Stimpson 1863); Halirages bispinosus Stephensen, 1917 [≠ H. bispinosus (Spence Bate, 1857) in Boeck 1871], type-locality: Bredefjord, South Greenland (Stephensen 1917). A very frequently recorded Arctic and subarctic species with a probably circumpolar distribution, reaching southwards South Iceland and the Skagerrak (Stephensen 1938), and occurring between 5 and 670 m (Oldevig 1959). On the figures of G.O. Sars (1893), which are otherwise excellent, the posterior border of the basis of P5-P7 is illustrated as totally smooth, whilst it is actually very weakly crenulate. In this respect, the figures of Stephensen (1917, as H. bispinosus) are more accurate.
