UVIGERINA PEREGRINA, new species, var. BRADYANA, new variety. 



I'late 42, fig. 12. 



Descriptio7i. — Variety differing from the typical in the more 

 elongate and slender test, the much lower costae, and the less coarsely 

 punctate test. 



Length uj) to 1 mm, or slightly more. 



Distribution. — Type-specimen (U.S.N.M. Cat. No. 17465) from 

 Albatross station D25G8, in 1781 fathoms (3257 meters) , off the north- 

 eastern coast of the United States. The same variety has occurred 

 at several other stations in the same region but not elsewhere. 



This is distinct from the typical form and might be referred by 

 some authors to U. tenuistiiata. In the Challenger Summary of 

 Results volume, U. tenuistriata is recorded from off Bermuda and 

 off the northeastern coast of the United States, and these records 

 iwaj be our variety. 



Uvigerina peregrina, var. bradyana — material examined. 



UVIGERINA PEREGRINA. new species, var. PARVULA, new variety. 



Plate 42, fig. 11. 



Description. — Variety differing from the typical in the usually 

 smaller size, the more inflated and remote character of the last 

 chamber, and the shorter stouter form of the whole test. 



Distribution. — Type-specimen (U.S.N.M. Cat. No. 17666) from 

 Albatross station D2400, in 169 fathoms (309 meters), in the north- 

 ern part of the Gulf of Mexico. The variety also occurs at several 

 other stations in the same vicinity, near Cuba, oft' Central America 

 in the Caribbean, and off the southeastern coast of Brazil with one 

 station on the southeastern coast of the United States. 



It is possible that the species figured by Brady, Parker, and 

 Jones" may belong here. The Albatross material from the Bra- 

 zilian coast is larger than that from the Gulf of Mexico.
