FORAMINIFERA AND OSTRACODA. CHAPMAN. 17 



Genus CLAVULINA, d'Orbigny. 

 CLAVULINA ANGULARIS, d'Orbigny. 



Clavulina angularis, d'Orbigny, Ann. Sci. Nat., vii., 1826, 

 p. 268, No. 2, pi. xii., fig. 7. Chapman, Journ. Linn. 

 Soc., Zool., xxx., 1907, p. 29, pi. iv., figs. 68-73. 



The specimens here recorded are of the slender, blunt-edged 

 variety, which appears to belong to form A of the dimorphic 

 couples (see above reference to the Victorian fossil examples). 



Forty miles south of Cape Wiles, 100 fathoms. Two 

 examples. 



CLAVULINA CYLINDBICA, Hantken. 



The present would have been the least depth amongst 

 recent soundings recorded for this species, but for the shallow 

 water sample of 2 fathoms from Van Diemen's Inlet, Gulf 

 of Carpentaria, recorded by Goddard and Jensen. 



CLAVULINA PARISIENSIS, d'Orbigny. 



This is a well-known fossil species in the Tertiary of the 

 Paris Basin and in the London Clay. It is curious to note 

 that the depth of the ancient sea-bed with C. parisiensis, 

 where Piccadilly now stands, was computed by Professors 

 Jones and Parker 1 to indicate a similar depth to the present 

 sample, viz., 100 fathoms. 



Forty miles south of Cape Wiles, 100 fathoms. A common 

 species in the present sounding. 



CLAVULINA TEXTULARIOIDEA, Goes. 



Clavulina parisiensis, d'Orbigny, forma textularioidea, Goes, 

 Arctic and Scandinavian Rhizop. Svenska Vet.-Akad. 

 Handl., xxv., 1892, No. 9, p. 42, pi. viii., figs. 387-399. 



This also is a fossil species, occurring in the Victorian 

 Cainozoics at Port Phillip. 



Forty miles south of Cape Wiles, 100 fathoms. Examples 

 frequent.
