The records are few, and the Antarctic ones depend on single specimens at 

 Stations 18 and 22, both deep water. The N.Z. examples are all from the sub- 

 fossilized foraminiferal rock (see Description of Material), from Stations 2, 3 and 6. 

 This seems to be conclusive that these sub-fossilized deposits were not laid down 

 under the same conditions as the recent material from the same Stations.

Stations 1-8 (+ R. d. J.). 



Confined to the N.Z. area and fairly plentiful at the Stations where it is found. 

 All the examples belong to the sharp edged, broad type figured by Brady (fig. 10). 

 and, except at Station 6, nearly all the specimens observed show but the feeblest signs 

 of the rectilinear series of chambers ; in fact Init for the very characteristic 

 appearance of the wall of the test, as compared \\\\\i C. laevigata, the specimens 

 might have been regarded as a mere variation of that type. At Station 6 the 

 rectilinear series was frequently developed to a nuich greater length than Brady's 

 figures would indicate, and there is an increasing tendency in the latest formed 

 chambers to lose the sharp marginal edge and to approach the rounded cross- 

 section of Brady's fig. 7. (FC. pi. liv.)

Station 55. 



A single small but typical specimen from this most southerly point. It is 

 a most interesting " find," in view of the fact that the very few recorded 

 observations now cover the North Sea, the Mediterranean, tropical East Africa 

 and " Farthest South," the only four records in existence.
