This species, characteristic of Glohigerina-ooze, has occurred at 26 

 stations in the area. Most of these are in comparatively deep water. 

 About half of these stations are in the Archipelago proper; the others 

 to the south in the following localities: Gulf of Tomini, Celebes; 

 Molucca Passage, between Gillolo and Makyan; between Gillolo and 

 Kayoa ; south of Patiente Strait ; south of Bouro Island ; Gulf of Boni ; 

 Macassar Strait; and Molucca Sea. These stations range in depth 

 from 32 to 1,560 fathoms (59 to 2,853 meters), the average being 437 

 fathoms (800 meters); bottom temperatures are given at but 10 sta- 

 tions, ranging from 38.2° to 63.6° F. (3.4° to 17.5° C), the average 

 temperature being 50.3° F. (10.1° C).
