RHABDAMMINA ABYSSORLM W. B. Carpenter, vcr. RADIATA Cushman. 



Plate 1, fig. 3. 



Rkabdammina abyssorum, var. radiata Cushman, Proc. U. S. Nat. Mus., vol. 51, 

 1917, p. 652. 



Description. — Test with a globular central chamber from which 

 radiate numerous arms, with annular constrictions, largest diameter 

 near the central chamber thence tapering toward the outer end; wall 

 of fine texture, smooth, reddish-brown in color. 



Type specimen. — Cat. No, 9101, U.S.N.M., from Albatross station 

 D5654, Gulf of Boni, 805 fathoms (1,459 meters), bottom tempera- 

 ture 38.3° F. (3.3° C). 



Specimens were also frequent at D5650, 540 fathoms (988 meters), 

 bottom temperature 40.1° F. (4.5° C), and D5651, 700 fathoms 

 (1,280 meters) bottom temperature 38.7° F. (3.7° C), both in the 

 Gulf of Boni, and D5640, Buton Strait, 24 fathoms (44 meters). 



This certainly seems to be very different from the ordinary form 

 of the species, the number of arms being as many as eight, the annular
