 length of the spines - 04. 



Habitat. Central Pacific, Station 271, surface.

fig. 5. 



Cortical shell thin walled, smooth, three times as broad as the medullary shell ; pores 

 regular, circular, five times as broad as the bars ; four to five on the quadrant. Four spines conical, 

 as long as the radius, as broad as one mesh.

4. Staurolonche brunonis, n. sp. 



Cortical shell thick walled, smooth, twice as broad as the medullary shell, with regular, circular 

 pores, three times as broad as the bars ; eight to ten on the quadrant. Four spines cylindro-conical,

5. Staurolonche pertusa, n. sp. (PI. 15, figs. 5, 5a). 



Cortical shell thin walled, smooth, three times as broad as the medullary shell, with regular, 

 circular pores, three times as broad as the bars ; eight to ten on the quadrant. Pores of the medullary 

 shell only one-third as large, also circular. Four spines three-sided prismatic, three times as long 

 as the radius ; each of their three thin wings perforated by a single row of small pores.
