Genoholotype. — Nodogenerina bradyi Cushman. 



Test elongate, uniserial, straight; chambers increasing in size as 

 added, distinct, inflated; sutures depressed; wall calcareous, finely 

 perforate; aperture terminal, central, rounded, with a cylindrical 

 neck and phialine lip. Cretaceous to Recent. 



NODOGENERINA (?) SPINATA Cushman 



Plate 2, Figure 11 



Nodogenerina spinata Cushman, B. P. Bishop Mus. Bull. 119, p. 123, pi. 14, 

 fig. 14, 1934. 



Test elongate, very rapidly tapering from the somewhat rounded 

 base; most of the chambers of the same diameter or even slightly 

 smaller toward the apertm-al end, inflated; sutures distinct, depressed; 

 wall calcareous, finely perforate, ornamented with numerous spines 

 projecting backward and more abundant on the lower half of the 

 chamber; aperture roimded, at the end of an elongate neck which 

 has a slight lip. 



Holotype (Bishop Museum No. 1308) from the late Tertiary of Fiji. 



We have from Albatross station H3866, lat. 17°17'00" S., long. 

 145°45'30'' W., in 804 fathoms, glob. oz. mang., a single typical 

 specimen of this species, which is here figured. Its distribution must, 

 therefore, be very greatly restricted, occurring in the late Tertiary 

 and still living off Fiji.

 Nodogenerina milletti Cushman, Contr. Cushman Lab. Foram. Res., vol. 9, 



p. 86, pi. 8, figs. 17, 18, 1933. 



Test elongate, tapering rapidly from the somewhat narrow base, 

 greatest breadth in the adult specimens near the middle, and later 

 chambers somewhat reduced in size; chambers numerous, those of 

 the early portion not inflated, later ones much inflated and excavated 

 at the base forming a distinct ridge about that portion; sutures 

 distinct, depressed especially in the later portion; wall calcareous, 

 perforate, ornamented by very fine longitudinal costae which tend 

 to break up into fine rows of papillae; aperture rounded, at the end 

 of a slight neck but without a definite lip. Length, 0.70 mm.; 

 breadth, 0.20 mm. 



The holotype is from 21 fathoms, Guam Anchorage, Ladrone Is- 

 lands. The only other records for this species are those given by 

 Millett from the Malay region. Tliis is not the same as Parker 

 and Jones' species, and the generic position of it is very much in
