Distribution and habitat

The Distribution and habitat section currently says:
"N. anomala is found from the Canary Isles, Ireland, Scotland, the Faeroe Isles, Norway, Iceland and Svalbard."
Can anyone clarify this? In the sources given here, this has a list of locations up the west coast of Europe, then just says Arctic Ocean; this one has a map which shows locations in the Mediterranean, but nothing further north than Fair Isle. Anybody know for sure? Xyl 54 (talk) 13:13, 20 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The "Habitat preferences and distribution" tab of the MarLIN link gives:

Recorded distribution in Britain and Ireland: From the Firth of Clyde up the west coast of Scotland including the Hebrides, Shetland, the south coast of England and the Isle of Man. In Ireland along the south coast, the north-west and the north-east.
Global distribution: From the Canary Isles, the Britain Isles, the Faeroe Isles, Norway, Iceland and Spitzbergen.
