REPORT ON THE RADIOLARIA. 367 



2. Cypassis eucolpos, n. sj: 



sn. 



Inner cortical shell thick walled, with regular, circular pores, twice as broad as the bars (without 

 hexagonal frames); nine to ten on the half meridian of each chamber, fifteen to seventeen on its half 

 equator. Outer cortical shell very thin, with smooth surface, and very small, u-regular, roundish 

 pores, twice to three times smaller than those of the inner shell. Distance between the two cortical 

 shells about one and a half times the ihameter of the inner medullary shell, which, like the outer, is 

 spherical. (The inner cortical shell resembles that of Cannartisciis amphiconiscus, PI. 39, fig. 19, 

 but without polar tubes.) 



Dimensions. — Main axis of the external cortical shell 0-2, of the internal OlS ; greatest breadth 

 of the former 0-16, of the latter 012 ; pores of the outer 0-002, of the inner 0-006, bars 0-003. 



Hahitat. — South Atlantic, Station 319, surface. 



Subgenus 2. Didymocyrtis, Haeckel (1862). 

 Definition. — Surface of the cortical shell thorny or spiny.

Inner cortical shell thick walled, with regular, circular pores, twice as broad as the bars (without 

 hexagonal frames) ; eight to nine on the half meridian of each chamber, ten to eleven on its half 

 equator. Outer cortical shell thin walled, with regular, circular pores like those of the inner. 

 Distance between the two cortical shells equals about twice the diameter of one pore (or the shor 

 axis of the lenticular douljle medullary shell). Surface covered with short conical spines (in ths 

 figure of Ehrenberg broken ofi). 



Dimensions. — Main axis of the external cortical shell 0-2, of the internal 0-15 ; greatest breadt 

 of the former 0-13, of the latter 0-1 ; pores of the outer 0-005 to 0-01, of the inner O'Ol, bars 0-004 

 length of the siu-face spines 0-005 to 0-01. 



Habited. — Fossil in the Tertiary rocks of Barbados, Bermuda, and Sicily (Caltanisetta) ; als 

 living in the greatest depth of the Pacific, Stations 268, 225, depth 2900 to 4475.
