410 HENRY SIDEBOTTOM ON LAGENAE OF THE SOUTH-WEST PACIFIC. 



I think Nature must have been in a comical mood when she 

 thought of this design. It at once suggest* a caricature of the 

 human figure. There are fourteen on the slide, and they vary 

 little from the one figured. Locality : Twelve were found at 

 No. 11, and one each at Nos. 8 and 13. 



Lagena marginata Walker and Boys var. semimaryinata Keuss. 



Lagena Xo. 64 von Schlicht, 1870, p. 11, pi. 4, figs. 4-6 ; and 



No. 65, p. 11, pi. 4, figs. 10-12. 

 Lagena mar'ginata var. seTiiimarginata Reuss, 1870, p. 468. 



The form as figured by Mr. Millett, 1901, p. 14, fig. 1, in his 

 Malay Report is present, but is rare. That with the keel or wing, 

 confined to the upper portion of the test, is extremely rare. 

 Locality : Exact stations uncertain. 



Note. See also remarks regarding PI. 18, fig. 5. 



Lagena marginata Walker and Boys var. seminiformis 

 Schwager (PI. 18, figs. 16-21). 



Miliola stiligera Ehrenberg (?), 1854, pi. 31, fig. 6. 

 Lagena seminiforviis Schwager, 1866, p. 208, pi. 5, fig. 21. 



The fine examples of this variety of Z. marginata, as figured in 

 the Challemjer Report, do not occur in these soundings, but the 

 examples are interesting. 



PI. 18, fig. 16. This is an elongate variety. All have a short 

 .spine at the centre of the base. The internal tube, when present, 

 is short and attached to the face of the test. Locality : Twenty- 

 seven occur at No. 11. It is very rare at two or three other 

 stations. One was found in the trigonal state. 



Pl. 18, fig. 17. This only differs from the preceding in having 

 a curious fiange-like process at the base, on both faces of the 

 test. Locality : Nos. 21, 23. Very rare. 



PI. 18, fig. 18. This comes nearest to Sch wager's figure. The 

 tube is attached. Jjocality : Nos. 1, 2, 18, and several other 

 stations. Rare. 



PI. 18, fig. 19. It is evident that this bears a strong resem- 

 blance to the " Crag " illustration, Jones, 1895, p. 200, pl. 7, 

 fig. 10, assigned to Z. seminiformis Schwager. The orifice is 

 funnel-shaped and slightly bent forwards. Tube attached. 

 Locality : No. 13. Only two found. 



Pl. 18, fig. 20. The keel in this variation almost, but not
