ably render it necessary to constitute a new genus embracing the 

 species tcsscllata, limbata, and probably annulata. 



"With regard to its hitherto recorded distribution, Brady writes, 

 "Sagrina limbata has only been encountered at a single locality, — 

 off Paine Island, Torres Strait, depth 155 fathoms." 



Howchin writes, " A single specimen of this very rare form was 

 obtained from the Lower-Bed. The test is longer and more slender 

 than Mr. Brady's figure and is also more curved in outline, but in 

 all essential features agrees with the type." The " Lower-Bed," 

 mentioned above, is a portion of the Older Tertiary of Muddy 

 Creek, Victoria, Australia.

 fragments from Station 13, in Area 1. 



It is much more abundant as a fossil than as a recent form.
