represents an irregular linear series in which the chambers are pyri- 

 form, the basal portion being broad and rounded, the apertural end 

 narrowed. These remind one very much of certain specimens of 

 Vitrewchlina. Both specimens are attached to shell fragments.

There are numerous specimens, very irregular in shape and 

 resembling in a general way those figured by Brady ^ and also 

 a specimen figured by Millett. In spite of the fact of the irregu- 

 larity of form, the general characters of this species seem to be 

 well defined. The surface is smooth and polished and clear white 



in color.

There are two very typical specimens from this station. Heron- 

 Allen and Earland record it from the Kerimba Archipelago off the 

 eastern coast of Africa. Millett's specimens are from the Malay 

 Archipelago, and with this material from New Zealand, show that 

 the species has a wide range in the Indo-Pacific region. Heron- 

 Allen and Earland in the same paper (p. 592) record their species 

 F. helix from material collected by Mr. R. L. Mestayer from the 

 same dredging from which our material is mounted. This species 

 has not occurred on the series of slides I have had from the United 

 States National Museum.
