A List of the fossil Radiolaria from Barbados, figured 



IN EhRENBERC's " FORTSETZUNG DER MIKROGEOLOGISCHEN 

 StUDIEN," * WITH THE EQUIVALENT NAMES USED BY HAECKEL. 



By Arthur Earland. 

 (Takeu as read, November llth, 1809.) 



When Haeckel published in 1887 his monograph on the 

 Challenger Radiolaria, he incorporated in the text descriptions 

 of all the species of Radiolaria then known, in most instances 

 transferring them to new genera of his own creation. As 

 Haeckel's work must always remain the standard work of refer- 

 ence on the subject, it has been thought that the following list, 

 which was drawn up for private purposes, may prove useful to 

 microscopists. The names in the left-hand column are Ehren- 

 berg's ; on the right are those under which Haeckel describes the 

 forms, the figures referring to the pages of the Challenger Report.

Only one figure on this plate can be identified with certainty as a 

 Radiolarian — viz. fig. 29. 



Foraminifera.

For a prolonged loan of tbis valuable work on the fossil Radiolaria of 

 Barbados I am indebted to my friend Mr. D. Bryce Scott. 



I may add that photographs of the thirty plates above referred to have 

 been prepared. Any communications as to the supply of copies should be 

 addressed to me at 28, Glenwood Road, Catford, S.E.— [A. E.}
