SiDDALL, J. D., in The First Report upon the Fauna of Liver- 

 pool Bay and the Neighbouring Seas. Pis. x, maps 2, 1886. 



" The following are new : — Foraminifera : Miliolina spiculifera, p. 51, 

 pi. i, fig. 3. Reophax mojtiliforme, p 54, pi. i, fig. 2. Placopsilina kings- 

 leyi, p. 54, pi. i, fig. i. (None of these are properly described by Mr. 

 J. D. Siddall.) 



Mr. Siddall alone compares his record (Foraminifera) with published 

 lists from the other side of the Irish Sea, but patriotism in his case has 

 somewhat overruled judicial impartiality, as a few instances will show. 

 HaUphysema tuinanowiczii, previously recorded from Dublin, in Balkwill 

 and Wright's Report (Tr. R. Irish Ac. 1885, p. 354). and in Brady's ' Chal- 

 lenger ' Report, ix, p. 281 Reophax moniliforme, N. Sp., was described 

 and figured, but not named by Balkwill and Wright, who also found La- 

 gena lyellii (p. 338), and L. lucida (p. 340), at Dublin." (The Zoologist, 

 vol. X, No 117, pp. 374, 375, 1886.)
