8oni Provo paa de forslcjellige Lersnrters Fauna skal 

 her (ipi'ognes de Arter, der ved Dr. ^Madsens ]\Ietliode er 

 fundet i 5 Bnndprover, nemlig 1 fra Biioculinaleret, 1 fra 

 Overgangsleret, 1 fra det gi-aa Ler langs Norges Kyst, I 

 fra Rliabdaniminaleret og I fra det graa Ler ved Si^ids- 

 liergen. Disse Bundiirover er ikke netop af de paa Arter 

 og E.\eniplarer rigeste, men udvalgt saaledes. at de ialmin- 

 deliglied forekommende Arter saavidt mulig kommer med. 

 De er fra følgende Stationer: 9, 135, 296, 268, 368. 



Foiaiden Bundproverne havdes ogsaa en hel Del 

 Tuber med Thalamophorer fra 8krabningerne. Disse Tuber 

 indeholdt ofte en stor Mængde af de storre og mere iøine- 

 faldende Arter ,. Da der ikke fandtes nogen saadan Prove 

 fra Skrabningerne fra det graa Ler, skal der her blot 

 gives en Fortegnelse over de Arter, der ved Skrabningerne 

 er fundet paa 2 Stationer, nemlig en fra Biioculinaleret 

 (Station 40) og eii tVa Rabdamminaleret (Station 274j. 



a litre of the sample was used. This mcthod pro\ed to 

 be pniductive of excellent results. 



The species found by Dr. Madsen's niethod in 5 

 bottom-samples will here be considered as samples of the 

 fauna of the different kinds of clay, viz. 1 from Biloculina 

 clay. 1 fi-oni transition clay. 1 from the gray clay along 

 the coast of Norway, 1 from the Rhabdammina clay, and 

 1 fi-om the gray clny at Spitzbergen. These sanijjles are 

 not of the richest in species and specimens, but are chosen 

 so as to incdude the species of most general occurrence. 

 They are from the following stations: 9. 135, 296. 268 

 and 368. 



In addition tu the bottom-samples, there wei-e also a 

 number of tubes containing Thalamophora from dredgings. 

 These ' tubes often contained a considerable numljer of 

 large and conspicuous species ,. As there was no sucii 

 sample from dredgings from the gray clay. a list wiU only • 

 be given of the species found in dredging at 2 stations, 

 namely. onc from the Biloculina clay (Station 40), and 

 one from the Rhabdammina clay (Station 274).
