Specimens of this interesting species have been found in few num- 

 bers from 14 Albatross stations in the region. These are in the Sulu 

 Sea; between Panay and Negros; Tanon Strait, east coast of Negros; 

 Gulf of Davao; off northwestern Panay; China Sea, off southern Luzon; 

 Palawan Passage; off Jolo Island; and Flores Sea. 



These stations range in depth from 135 to 885 fathoms (247 to 

 1,618 meters), the average depth being 495 fathoms (905 meters); 

 bottom temperatures range from 38.2° to 62.8° F. (3.4° to 17.1° C), 

 average 47.5° F. (8.6°C.). 



In Palawan Passage specimens at one station were common, but 

 usually they were represented at any one station by very few speci- 

 mens. At one station in Flores Sea specimens were found with the 

 chambers branched at the tips.
