A single station from Montego Bay, station G, is nearer to this 

 than any other of d'Orbigny's species. As there is but the single 

 specimen, it is difficult to say whether it is an adult or an immature 

 specimen. It is the only representative of the family in the Jamaican 

 material which is remarkable, as several of the genera are abundant

at moderate depths in the Gulf of Mexico and Caribbean. In 

 d'Orbigny's work, however, the family was represented by but few 

 species, showing that they are not common in the very shallow water 



Family GLOBIGERINIDAE. 

 Genus GLOBIGERINA d'Orbigny, 1826. 



GLOBIGEKINA BULLOIDES d'Orbigny.

GloUgerina bulloides d'Orbigny, Ann. Sci. Nat., vol. 7, 1826, p. 277, No. 1; 



Modeles, Nos. 17 and 76. 

 GloUgerina siphonifera d'Orbigny, Foram. Cuba, 1839, p. 83, pi. 4, figs. 15-18. 



Specimens of this widespread species occurred at four stations, 

 Montego Bay, stations 2, 4, and G, with few specimens in each; and 

 rare at Runaway Bay. D'Orbigny does not record this species in 

 the Cuban Monograph. However, his G. siplionifera is apparently 

 the same species and may account for it, being a specimen with the 

 bases of the spinose projections still attached to the test. Such 

 specimens are not uncommon in well preserved material of G. bul- 

 loides throughout its range. D'Orbigny recorded G. siphonifera from 

 Cuba and Jamaica.
