ANIMAL FOSSILS. 

 PROVINCE PROTOZOA. 



(1) Foraminifera. 



NodosaHa {Glandvlina) Icevigata. 



(Var. Dentcdina communis). 



Fossil — Leda clay, Montreal. 



Recent— Gulf St. Lawrence, 30 to 300 fathoms. G. M. D.* 



This species is very rare in the Post-pliocene, but sometimes of 

 large size and of different varietal forms. 



Lagena sidcata (Var. distoma). 



(Var. semisidcata). 



Fossil — Leda clay, Montreal ; Quebec ; Murray Bay ; Anticosti ; 

 Rivi^re-du-Loup ; Portland (Maine). 



Recent — Gulf St. Lawrence, 18 to 313 fathoms. G. M. D. British 

 Columbia. + 



Rather rare in the Pleistocene as well as in the recent. 



Entosolenia glohosa. 



costata. 



marginata. 



squamosa. 



Fossil — Montreal, Leda clay ; Labrador ; Rivi^re-du-Loup ; Anti- 

 costi ; Murray Bay ; Quebec ; Portland (Maine). 



Recent — Gulf and River St. Lawrence, 20 to 313 fathoms. G.M.D. 



Generally diffused in the Pleistocene, and presenting the same range 

 of forms as in the recent ; but not common. I regard the supposed 

 species of Entosolenia above named as merely varietal forms. 



* The initials G. M. D., refer to the List of Foraminifera by Dr. 

 G. M. Dawson in The Canadian Naturalist, 1870. 



t This and other species from British Columbia are from a memoir
