FOEAMINIFERA OF THE PHILIPPINE AND ADJACENT SEAS. 427 



Sulu Sea, off southern Panay; near Basilan Island; off Jolo; off 

 Tawi Tawi; off Romblon; off eastern Panay; off northern Cebu; off 

 western Samar; east of Masbate; off southeastern Mindoro; Palawan 

 Passage; Malampaya Sound, Palav/an Island; Ragay Gulf, Luzon; 

 between Cebu and Bohol; and one station to the south in Darvel 

 Bay, Borneo. There are 35 stations at which material is found. 

 These range in depth from 18 to 400 fathoms (33 to 732 meters), the 

 average depth 95 fathoms (174 meters). The bottom temperatiu-e is 

 given at nine stations, ranging from 49.6° to 76. 3°F. (19.8° to 24.6° C), 

 the average temperature being 55.3° F. (12.9° C). As these are 

 from some of the deeper stations, the average temperature for the 

 entire number would probably be considerably higher. This is, then, 

 a species of comparatively shallow, warm waters of the tropics, and 

 should be found to be common in the warm area to the south under 

 similar conditions. At some of the stations, especially in the China 

 Sea off southern Luzon, and in parts of the Sulu region, it occurs very 

 abundantly, making up a considerable proportion of the bottom 

 samples.
