166 HENRY S1DEB0TT0M ON LAGENAE OF THE SOUTH-WEST FACIFICL 



the two specimens figured is so opaque that it is impossible to 

 say whether the entosolenian tube is present. Locality : Nos. 5,, 

 7, 9, 39-41, 44. 



Lagena ovum Ehrenberg sp. 



Miliola ovum Ehrenberg, 1843, p. 166; 1854, pi. 23, fig. 2; 

 pi. 27, fig. 1 ; pi. 29, fig. 45. 



Locality : This unsatisfactory form occurs at many stations, 

 but is always rare. See remarks +p. 382. 



Lagena botelliformis Brady (PL 15, figs. 7, 8). 

 Lagena botelliformis Brady, 1884, p. 454, pi. 56, tig. 6. 



PI. 15, fig. 7. Only two specimens found. The orifice is phia- 

 line, and there is a short internal tube. Locality : No. 44. 



PL 15, fig. 8. This is a very fine example in the apiculate- 

 condition. See also +PL 14, fig. 24. Locality: No. 12. 



+ P1. 14, figs. 24, 25. Locality; Many stations. 



**"PL 14, figs. 26-28. Locality: Stations uncertain. 



Lagena laevis Montagu sp. (PL 15, figs. 9, 10). 



Serpula (Lagena) laevis ovalis Walker and Boys, 1784, p. 3, pi. 1,. 



fig. 9. 

 Lagena laevis (Walker and Jacob) Williamson, 1848, p. 12, pi. 1, 



figs. 1, 2. 



L, laevis occurs frequently in these gatherings, and the form 

 of the test, the decoration of the neck and the position of the- 

 internal tube varies. Some are apiculate. In a few instances 

 there is an entosolenian tube situated at the base. Locality .- 

 Many stations. 



PL 15, fig. 9. The tests are semi-opaque, the short neck is- 

 decorated and the internal tube straight. In several instances 

 fine spines project at the base. Locality : Nos. 1, 2, 3, and one- 

 or two others. 



PL 15, fig. 10. This appears to be a smaller variety of the- 

 above. The tests are too opaque for me to make out whether 

 the entosolenian tube is present. Some are apiculate and may- 

 be L. laevis var. distoma Silvestri. Locality : At a good many 

 stations throughout the series.
