FORAMINIFERA OF NORTH PACIFIC OCEAN. 



45 



Distribution. — The species has been recorded by Brady at two 

 North Pacific stations, oft* the Philippines, in 95 fathoms, and from 

 the south coast of Japan, in 15 fathoms. Bagg records it from a 

 number of Albatross stations near the Hawaiian 

 Islands, but an examination of his material 

 shows most of his specimens to belong to an- 

 other species. 



Typical specimens were found at a number 

 of stations oft' the coast of Japan, in from 39- 

 584 fathoms; also at three Albatross stations 

 in Bering Sea, 114025, in 536 fathoms; D4781, 

 in 482 fathoms; mid D3608, in 276 fathoms. 

 Specimens were abundant and large at station 

 II2768, in 373 fathoms, near the coast of Cali- 

 fornia. Specimens were also found at Tusca- 

 rora stations 32, in 309 fathoms, from the Cali- 

 fornian coast: and 79, in 799 fathoms, near the 

 Aleutian Islands. 



The figured specimen did not have the typi- 

 cal long median costse which are shown in 

 Brady's figures and in the photographed speci- 

 mens of Flint.

Length 0.5 mm. or less. 



Distribution. — Recorded by Brady from Challenger station 209, 

 in 95 fathoms, off the Philippines. I have not found specimens 

 referable to this species. The description and figures are from 

 Brady.
