Of this rare form a few poor examples occur at several Stations 

 in both Areas ; they differ from columcllaris in little more than the 

 compression of the test. 



Brady states that it has only been observed in one locality, the 

 JTf/aloiiema-grouTid, south of Japan, depth 345 fathoms. Egger's 

 very doubtful 'Gazelle' examples are from West Australia, 560 

 f;i thorns.

In the Malay Archipelago this is the predominant species of the 

 genus, being found in abundance at most of the Stations all over 

 the Begion. The examples are large, well developed, and possess 

 all the characters of the species. 



With regard to its distribution elsewhere, Brady writes, " Sagrina 

 virgula has been obtained in the South Atlantic off Pernambuco, 

 675 fathoms ; with that exception the distribution, which extends 

 altogether to ten localities, is confined to the South Pacific, the 

 bathymetrical range being from 12 fathoms to 2075 fathoms." 

 Egger reports it from the western coast of South Africa, 1914 

 fathoms ; and two Stations off West Australia, 196 fathoms and 

 560 fathoms.

As indicated by the figures, the" Malay Archipelago represen- 

 tatives of this species vary considerably from the type. The 

 uniserial chambers are often irregularly lobed at their base ; whilst 

 in some examples the Uvigerine portion is obscure, and the test 

 appears to be uniserial throughout. In the surface ornamentation 

 the usual costee are replaced by regular rows of closely placed dots ; 

 a few of the examples, however, have the surface quite smooth. In 

 my cabinet are examples dredged from 50 fathoms off the coast of
