FORAMINIFEKA OF NORTH PACIFIC OCEAN. 97 



the entrance of the Gulf of California, the other southwest of Panama. 

 In the material I have examined it has occurred frequently in the 

 Albatross, Nero, and Tuscarora dredgings. 



D'Orbigny's original figures of this species show a fusiform taper- 

 ing test, in which the last-formed chambers lack the characteristic 

 costse and in which the tubular neck is long. Later in his Vienna 

 Basin monograph he uses the same name for a test of different form, 

 still fusiform but with a much shorter and stouter neck. In recent 

 material, however, in almost all cases the later-formed chambers 

 are broad and the test is much broader toward the apical end. The 

 figures given by Brady, Parker, and Jones * of specimens from the 

 Abrolhos Bank and by Flint 2 show the typical form so abundant 

 in the cooler waters of recent seas.

 p. 575, pi. 74, figs. 8-10.— Chapman, Proc. Zool. Soc. London, 1895, p. 35. 



Description. — Test elongate, subovate, tapering to a blunt point at 

 the aboral end; segments numerous, only slightly inflated externally; 

 surface ornamented by a few ill-defined, partial costse; color pure 

 white. 



Length 1.6 mm. 



Distribution. — Brady records this species from 95 fathoms off the 

 Philippines in the North Pacific as well as from off the Fiji Islands 

 and Torres Strait. Chapman records it from the Arabian Sea. Out- 

 side of the Philippine region I have failed to find this species in the 

 North Pacific. 



The figures and description are from Brady.

Description. — Test elongate, composed of numerous inflated 

 chambers, wall with longitudinal costae for the most part breaking 

 up into rows of spinose projections longitudinally placed; aperture 

 with a short stout neck with a broad phialine lip. 



Length about 0.75 mm. 



Distribution. — This species has not hitherto been recorded from the 

 North Pacific. Brady's stations were off Christmas Harbor, Kergue- 

 len Island, 120 fathoms, and off the western shore of Patagonia, 245
