gins somewhat angular and projecting, wall smooth, aperture with a 

 very short broad neck with a narrow phialine lip. 



Length about 0.35 mm. 



Distribution. — This species, described as a European fossil, seems to 

 occur in the North Pacific, specimens from Albatross station H2923 

 in 392 fathoms being very similar to U. selseyensis. The figure does 

 not show the angular character of the periphery of the chambers, but 

 this occurs and makes the resemblance much more striking, and the 

 comparison made by the authors that the species resembles both V. 

 angulosa and U. porrecta is well sustained.

Uvigerina proboscidea Schwager, Novara Exped., Geol. Theil, 2, 1866, p. 250, 

 pi. 7, fig. 96. — Egger, Abh. k6n. bay. Akad. Wiss. Munchen, CI. n, vol. 

 18, 1893, p. 312, pi. 9, fig. 53. 



Description. — Test ovate, tapering somewhat at either end, cham- 

 bers inflated, but closely set with sutures nearly flush, surface slightly 

 hispid with very fine aculei, aperture with a tapering tubular neck 

 with the greatest diameter near the base and a slightly phialine lip. 



Length about 0.5 mm. 



Distribution. — Not previously recorded from the North Pacific. 

 Described from the Pliocene of Kar Nicobar and recorded by Egger 

 from Gazelle station 90 off Western Australia. Specimens which 

 seem to be this species were found at Nero station 1464 in 891 fathoms 

 off Guam. 



Although Brady places this species as a synonym of U. canariensis, 

 it seems that it belongs rather with the hirsute group of the genus. 

 Our specimens are very similar to the drawing of the type.

 Uvigerina tenuistriata Bagg (part) (not U. tenuistriata Reuss), Proc. U. S. Nat. 



Mus., vol. 34, 1908, p. 151. 



Description. — Test elongate, fusiform, tapering rather abruptly 

 toward either end, chambers numerous, three in each whorl, some- 

 what inflated and separated by fairly deep sutures, wall with fine 

 longitudinal costse somewhat interrupted; somewhat angul in end 

 view; aperture with a short tapering tubular neck without a definite 

 phialine lip. 



Length 0.3 to 0.6 mm. 



Distribution. — Specimens referred to U. tenuistriata Reuss by Bagg 

 from Albatross station H4696 in 367 fathoms off the Hawaiian Islands
