the probable relationship of both N. 2J'f'0xima, 0. silvestri, and 

 N.jimplex Silvestri to N. scalaris Batsch. 



Nodosaria rapJiarms (Linne).

pi. i, fig. 6. 

 Nautilus raphanus Linne, 1767, Syst. Nat., 12th ed, p. 1164, No. 283. 

 Nodosaria rajjhanus Jones, Parker and Brady, 1866, Foram. Crag. Pal. Soc,

 N. ra;plianus Brady, 1884, Chall. Kept., p. 512, pi. Ixiv, figs. 6-10. 



A single, small specimen, similar to the " Crag " illustration, 

 fig. 4. 



Nodosana liispida d'Orbigny. 



** Orthoceratia quasi Msjnda" Soldani, 1798, Testaceographia, vol. ii, 



p. 15, pi. ii, fig. P. 

 Nodosaria hispida Brady, 1884, Chall. Kept., p. 507, pi. Ixiii, figs. 10, 



11, 12-16. 



A single specimen, similar to the " Challenger " illustrations, 

 pi. Ixiii, figs. 10, 11. 



Brady remarks that " it is difficult to say whether they are 

 arrested individuals of the present species, or belong to one of the 

 allied forms like N. setosa Schwager (Novara-Exped. geol. Theil, 

 vol. ii, p. 218, pi. V, fig. 40), to which in some respects they bear 

 greater resemblance." 



Two examples similar to the " Challenger " fig. 12, and five 

 fragments of tests resembling figs. 14, 15. 



Nodosaria (D) obliquestriata Reuss. (PI. IV, figs. 10, 11.) 



Dentalina obliquestriata Reuss, 1851, Zeitsch. Deutsch. Geol. Gesell.,

 Dentalina obliquestriata Jones, Parker and Brady, 1866, Foram. Crag. 

 Pal. Soc, vol. xix, p. 56, pi. i, fig. 19. 



This is an interesting variety of N. (D) obliqua. As will be 

 noticed in the illustration, the obliquity of the strife is lost in the 

 final chamber. 



Two found, of which one is imperfect. 



Nodosaria raphanistrum (Linne). (PI. IV, figs. 12, 13.) 



Nautilus raphanistrum Linne, 1767, Syst. Nat., 12th ed, p. 1163, No. 282.

This is a rare form in the recent condition. It is apparently 

 fragile. Seven fragments occur, five of which have the initial 

 chamber intact. In some there is a dark band showing just above 

 the sutures.
