at the three stations in Cuba, as follows : Station 3448, limestone from 

 hillside south of Panupo manganese mine, La Maya, near Santiago, col- 

 lected by T. W. Vaughan; 3478, Nuevitas, collected by A. C. Spencer; 

 and 7666, Sierra Guaso, northeast of Guantanamo, collected by N. H. 

 Barton. It was also obtained at station 6125, railroad cut near San 

 Nicolas manganese mine, west of San Luis, by C. W. Hayes. The two 

 figured specimens give only a somewhat general idea of the sections. 



At each of the three stations there is an association of Linderinaf, 

 Conulites, and Orthophragmina, three genera usually associated with 

 the Eocene. Linderina is, so far as known, an Eocene genus, recorded 

 from England and Belgium, from Celebes, Borneo, and the Loo Choo 

 Islands. 



A somewhat similar form occurs at station 6512, Panama, river-bed 

 at David.

 Fis. Pol. Nat. Cuba, "Foraminiferes," p. 46, plate 6, figs. 6, 7, 1839. 



Specimens identical with d'Orbigny's figures were found in the Cuban 

 material, station 3461, marl, gorge of Yumuri River, Matanzas, col- 

 lected by T. W. Vaughan, and a single specimen in Doctor Maury's 

 material from Santo Domingo, Bluff 3, Cercado de Mao.

Nonionina sloani d'Orbigny, in De la Sagra, Hist. Fis. Pol. Nat. Cuba, "Foraminiferes," 

 p. 46, plate 6, fig. 18, 1839. 



This species was found in the Cuban material, station 3461, marl, 

 gorge of Yumuri River, Matanzas, collected by T. W. Vaughan, and 

 a single specimen in Doctor Maury's material from Bluff 2, Cercado 

 de Mao, Santo Domingo.

A specimen from station 3461, marl from gorge of Yumuri River, 

 Matanzas, Cuba, collected by T. W. Vaughan, has many of the charac- 

 ters of this species, but differs in the smaller amount of the umbilical 

 projections and rounder outline from the published figures. It is 

 referred here provisionally. 



Nonionina species. 

 (Plate 5, Figure 11; Plate 8, Figure 5.) 



Occasional specimens occur in the sections as shown in the figure, 

 apparently sections of a small species of Nonionina. The specimen 

 illustrated by plate 5, fig. 11, is from Anguilla, U.S.G.S. No. 6894,
