Nomenclature of the Foraminifera. 341 
Menardii, D’Orb., are through numerous and more or less ob- 
long varieties, as yet undescribed, from the very deep soundings 
in the tropical parts of the Atlantic Ocean. 
18. Vol.i. p. 126. 32¢ genre. Eponides repandus. After Fich- 
tel and Moll. It is the Rotalia repanda. 
19. Vol. i. p. 180. 33¢ genre. Storilus radiatus. From the 
Persian Gulf and Leghorn. This is a Rotalian form, flat on one 
side and strongly umbonate on the other. It is difficult to con- 
jecture its identity with any known form, though it may be 
meant to represent some large variety of Rotalia Beccarii, which 
is extremely variable in its growth in different seas. 
20. Vol. i. p. 134. 34¢ genre. Florilus stellatus. A bad draw- 
ing after Fichtel and Moll’s figures of Nonionina asterizans. 
21. Vol. i. p. 138. 35° genre. Polyxenes cribratus. After 
Fichtel and Moll’s figure of Planorbulina farcta. 
22. Vol. i. p. 142. 36¢ genre. Molides squaammatus. The figure 
in Soldani’s ‘ Testaceographia’ (pl. 167. fig. v v) which De 
Montfort has here copied, with fanciful modifications, is one of 
Soldani’s “ Retepore muscipule minime.” There is no doubt 
that Soldani’s specimen was a young and somewhat excentric 
Orbitolites complanatus. Four or five other dwarfish and some- 
what worn specimens are figured by Soldani in pls. 167 & 168, 
with a want of his usual clearness of delineation, his notion of 
the relations of these little Orbitolites (always small in the 
Mediterranean, especially at Leghorn) not having been very 
definite. 
23. Vol.i. p. 146. 37° genre. Tinoporus baculatus. Modified 
from the figure of Calcarina Spengleri, var.a, F. & M. ; or, rather, 
this is apparently a curious hybrid picture, consisting of a three- 
spined Orbitolina*, according to its surface-ornament and its 
vertical section, but outlined after a three-spined Calcarina 
Spengleri (such as fig. e. pl. 15, in Fichtel and Moll’s ‘ Test. 
Microse.’). The indication of an aperture (the broken newest 
chamber in Calcarina) is also after Fichtel and Moll’s figure. 
The sectional aspects in Montfort’s woodcut appear to have been 
taken, the vertical (Orbitoline) from nature, the horizontal (Cal- 
carine) from Fichtel and Moll’s fig. k, with the sectional feature 
of the spine (also Calcarine) added from some other source. 
Some stellate variety of Orbitolina spherulata may perhaps claim 
the name of O. baculata, Montf.; but Montfort’s indefiniteness 
may well lead us to drop the name altogether. 
24. Vol.i. p. 150. 38° genre. Siderolites caleitrapes (Szdero- 
lites calcitrapoides, De la Marck. Syst. An. s. Vert. p. 376). 
Maestricht. This is the Rotalia (Calcarina) Spengleri, Gmelin 
* For an account of Orbitolina, see Annals Nat. Hist. ser. 3, vol, vi. 
p- 29, &e.
