Type locality.

Röberg Indalbay, Trondheim, Norway.

Distribution.

North Sea, at 10-200 m depth.

Remarks.

This species is rather common in some areas of Great Britain and Scotland and there are two detailed descriptions; the original ( Carlgren 1912b) and a redescription ( Picton and Manuel 1985). The life cycle has been inferred from the occurrence of larvae named as Arachnactis albida ( Picton and Manuel 1985), but further study is needed to understand the relationship in detail. Not much is known about ecological aspects of this species and this should be a very interesting field of study.

Type material.

Swedish Museum of Natural History (Naturhistoriska riksmuseet) - NRM 134778 (Holotype).
