200 ARTHUR EARLAND ON THE FORAMINIFERA OF 



Frequent. Previously recorded in Great Britain only from 

 Oban (Norman). 



All the specimens found are more or less fragmentary. This is 

 doubtless due to the nature of the organism, which is normally 

 adherent to other bodies, and perfect specimens will doubtless be 

 forthcoming if looked for in suitable positions, such as among the 

 Algae and Bryozoa thrown up on the beach.

Previously recorded in Great Britain only by Dr. Chaster 

 (op. cit.), from Southport, where also it is very small and rare. It 

 is normally a deep-water species, at home in depths of 1,500 — 

 2,000 fathoms.
