TROPICAL PACIFIC FORAMINIFERA OF "ALBATROSS' 



25 



In our South Pacific material this species occurs at several stations 

 in comparatively shallow water, as follows: Near Nairai, Fiji; 

 Mokaujar Anchorage, Fiji; Levuka, Fiji, 12 fathoms; and Rangiroa. 

 Data for the deeper water Albatross stations will be found in Table 14.

Test flask-shaped, compressed, body of the test elongate, oval, with 

 a long, tapering, slender neck, the central portion of the test immedi- 

 ately surrounded on each side by a raised ridge outside of wliich 

 peripherally is a keel of varying width with radiating fine tubulations, 

 which are more distinctly transparent than the keel itself; apertural 

 and basal ends of the central portion of the test passing into the 

 inner keel by a series of interrupted costae, the basal end of the test 

 usually emarginate ; aperture at the end of the projecting neck, cu'cular, 

 shghtly expanded, or in some specimens elliptical. Length, up to 

 1 mm; breadth, 0.4 mm; thickness, 0.2 mm. 



This is one of the most beautiful species of the genus, and is very 

 largely confined to the Pacific. Heron-Allen and Earland have lately
