This is a keeled siibvaricty of Cristelhiria crejndula, F.& M.

In the ])receding \A. 57, figs. F, X, Y, d- Z clearly exhibit 

 passages from C. cassis to C. crepidula, as arranged by

^^ Hah. Fossil at Coroncina." (Near Sienna, Soldani.) 



This is a very doubtful shell. If we accept it as a Forami- 

 nifer, it is more out of deference to the generally clear per- 

 ception shown by Soldani than from any conviction the figure 

 carries with it. The drawing shows no septation and no 

 Cristellarian a])erture, only a spirally coiled shell, thickly 

 studded with tubercles, which at the margin run into spines. 

 If it be a Foraminifer, it may be regarded as a granular or 

 tuberculatc variety of C. calcar, and as such nearly related to 

 C. rostrata, Montfort, s^).

" Ilah. The Adriatic." (Rare, fossil, at San Quirico, and 

 not found by Soldani elsewhere.) 



An intermediate variety. General contour like C. rotidata
