140 MR F. GORDON PEARCEY ON 



G. jiliformis, Berthelin. From the examination of Challenger specimens and others, 

 I consider CUSHMAN is quite correct, and have therefore followed his example. 



I have obtained good representatives of G. pseudqfiliformis from two Scotia stations, 

 313, 1775 fathoms, and 338, 2180 fathoms, and these are the most southern records for 

 this species. 



Gaudryina bradyi, Cushman. 



This species is a common deep-sea form, which Dr H. B. BRADY, in his Challenger 

 Report, erroneously records under the name of G. pupoides. Although I believe 

 CUSHMAN to be correct in his reference to this species, it would have been more to the 

 point had he given it a name which conveyed some definite specific character. 



G. bradyi was taken at three stations, 342, 459, and 467. It has been hitherto 

 collected as far north as lat. 60 N., and is generally met with in most samples of deep- 

 sea deposits. The Scotia's records are the most southerly known. 



Genus CLAVDLINA, d'Orbigny. 

 Clavulina communis, d'Orbigny. 



This species is a comparatively common form in tropical and subtropical areas ; it 

 has been collected in from moderate depths down to 2300 fathoms, and is recorded from 

 the North Atlantic to as far south as the Antarctic Continent. 



I have found it in Scotia material from six stations, 313 (rare), 337a (few), 342 

 (rare), 417, 418, and 447 (rare). 



Sub-family BULIMININ^E. 



Genus BULIMINA, d'Orbigny. 



Bulimina aculeata, d'Orbigny. 



Obtained at two stations, 118 (rare) and 451 (few). This species has been 

 collected as far north as the North Cape on the coast of Norway, and as far south as 

 the Antarctic Continent. 



Bulimina buchiana, d'Orbigny. 



Taken at one station only, 451 (few) ; it is a common species in the North Atlantic 

 from lat. 60 N. to the equator, and has been collected from depths of 150 to 1675 

 fathoms. The Scotia record is the most southerly point at which this species has been 

 obtained. 



Bulimina ovata, d'Orbigny. 



This species was obtained (rare) at Station 459, 1998 fathoms, in a deposit of 

 Globigerina ooze.
