FORAMINIFERA OF THE PHILIPPINE AND ADJACENT SEAS. 297 



This is a peculiar modification which is thus placed, but which has 

 a rougher, more punctate surface than typical C. nitida, and yet has a 

 series of pores along the junctions of the chambers.

Like Orhulina universa this species seems to be limited in the 

 region, while the other species of the genus is very much more com- 

 mon. It occurred at the following stations: D5178, in 78 fathoms 

 (143 meters), vicinity of Romblon; D5236, in 494 fathoms (903 

 meters), Pacific Ocean, east coast of Mindanao, bottom temperature 

 41.2° F. (5.1° C); and D5638, in 517 fathoms (946 meters), off Bouro 



Island.

In contrast with the preceding species this one has been noted at 

 43 stations in the region. It is rather interesting, however, to note 

 that but very few of these are really among the islands of the Archi- 

 pelago proper, but, except in the Sulu Sea, the records are mainly 

 from the China Sea; Gulf of Davao; Palawan Passage; Gulf of 

 Tomini, Celebes; Molucca Passage; between Gillolo and Makyan and
