Two forms occur — one with the apical spine as figured by Brady ^ 

 the other with the apical spine wanting, and a the costae of the 

 surface extending over the apical end. These have the appearance 

 of a test in which the first chamber has in some way become detached.

 Nodosaria obliqua Linnaeus, var. vertebralis Chapman, Trans. New Zealand 



Instit., vol. 38, 1905, p. 94, pi. 3, fig. 5. 



This species seems to attain a large size in this material and may 

 be compared to that found in the Philippine region. 



NODOSARIA HIRSUTA d'Orbigny.

 pi. 63, figs. 12-16.— SiDEBOTTOM, Joum. Roy. Micr. Soc, 1918, p. 135. 



There is a single specimen mounted which is very close in its 

 character to that figured by Brady {Challenger, pi. 63, fig. 14). 



Genus LINGULINA d'Orbigny, 1826. 



LINGULINA CARINATA d'Orbigny (7). 



Lingulina carinaia d'Orbigny, Ann. Sci. Nat., vol. 7, 1826, p. 257, No. 1. — H. B. 

 Brady, Rep. Voy. Challenger, Zoology, vol. 9, 1884, p. 517, pi. 65, fig.(?)16. 



There is a single specimen which is almost identical in all its 

 characters with that figured by Brady ^ under this name. This is, 

 however, evidently not L. carinata d'Orbigny. Brady mentions 

 in his list of localities that he had material from the South Pacific, 

 and this form figured by him may possibly be characteristic of this 

 region. It is evidently a new species or variety, which should be 

 described when more material is available.
