Seals and Whales Brit. Mus. p. 34(i866). Characters. General colour yellowish-grey, becoming lighter on the under-parts, with dark grey spots and blotches ; but, as in most Seals, there is considerable of variation in tint according to age. Total length of male, about 8 feet. Distribution. The range of ...this species is restricted to the shores of the North Atlantic Ocean, where it is far more com- mon and more widely distributed on the European than on the American side. Its chief haunts appear to be the British and Scandinavian coasts ; its northern limits being seemingly marked by the Baltic, the Gulf of Bothnia, and Iceland. This Seal was first recognised as an inhabitant of the British seas in the year 1836 ; and while rare on the southern coasts of Eng- land, it is exceedingly abundant on the western and southern shores of Ireland, as well as in the Hebrides and Shetlands.
