There are in the Cretaceous material from Trinidad a number of 

 specimens evidently belonging to Hyperanimina that have been 

 already recorded in the above reference as Hypermnmina elongata 

 H. B. Brady. There is considerable variation in the relative quan- 

 tity of cement used in the test, and consequently some of these are 

 smoothly finished and others in which the quantity of arenaceous 

 snaterial is large are roughened. Similar conditions are found in 

 Hecent material. Franke notes the occurrence of a Hyperaminina in 

 sthe German Cretaceous, but does not give a definite name to his 

 smaterial. 



HYPERAMMINA (?) sp. (?) 



Plate 1, Fiqttee 9 



There are a number of specimens in our material similar to that 

 here figured, which, as one end is closed and the other open, seem 

 to belong to this genus. All these, however, have a distinctly col- 

 lapsed appearance and are more or less distorted, and so there may 

 be some question as to the true generic position. They are given 

 here for future reference for other workers on the group.
