Abstract
Kolga hyalina Danielssen and Koren has been found in dense numbers between 2755 and 4080 m in the Porcupine Seabight. All of the specimens were small and of a similar size at any one station. The narrow size distributions were typical of the species over a wide geographic area and size range. Gonadial development is evident in the smallest specimens examined (3 mm long). The life-history traits of K. hyalina are discussed in relation to its association with the unstable environment of the Gollum Channel system. The dispersion pattern of K. hyalina changed temporally and, to a lesser extent, spatially. In some cases dense aggregations were formed. Taxonomic details are also presented.
