Bolivina suhtenuis Cushman, Cushman Lab. Foram. Res. Special Publ. No. 6,

Bolivina tenuis H. B. Bradt, Quart. Journ. Micr. Sci., vol. 21, p. 57, 1881; Rep. 

 Voy. Challenger, Zoolog}^ vol. 9, p. 419, pi. 52, fig. 29, 1884. — Cushman, 

 Carnegie Inst. Washington Publ. 342, p. 17, pi. 5, figs. 7, 8, 1924. 



Test much compressed, nearly as broad as long, widest just above 

 the middle; chambers comparatively few, fairly distinct; sutures 

 strongly curved, the inner portion of each chamber showing signs 

 of a subdivision in some cases; wall smooth; aperture at one side, 

 rounded, with a very slight lip. Length, about 0.25 mm. 



This seems to be a yqvj rare species described by Brady from 255 

 fathoms off Kandavu, Fiji, and I have recorded it from stations off 

 Samoa. I have single typical specimens, one from Albatross station 

 H3945, northeast point of Murea Island, 5 miles southwest, in 981 

 fathoms, at 36.7° F., crs. vol. s. pter., the other from Mokaujar An- 

 chorage, Fiji. This seems to be a very distinct but very rare form so 

 far as the records show, being confined to the area of the Fiji and 

 Samoan Islands.

Test 1^2 to 2 times as long as broad, the early portion tapering and 

 the later portion in the adult often with nearly parallel sides, initial
