FORAMINIFEEA OF NORTH PACIFIC OCEAN. 47 



shows that the two are synonymous. At present Montfort's poorly 

 executed figures make it impossible to determine his species with 

 certainty without such an examination of types, and at present this 

 is impossible.

Description. — Test oval or subovate, broadest in the middle, com- 

 posed of few chambers, apical end broadly rounded, without spines, 

 apertural end more elongate, aperture with radiate lines about the 

 margin; last-formed chamber occupying one-half or more of the 

 visible test. 



Length 1 to 2 mm. 



Distribution. — This species has not previously been recorded from 

 the North Pacific. I have found it at Albatross station D4807, off 

 Japan, in 44 fathoms. 



Millett raises the question as to whether this and N. laevigata are 

 microspheric and megalospheric forms of a single species. 



In the figured specimen the last-formed chamber occupies rather 

 more than usual of the surface of the test.
