2. Botryopyle cribrosa, Haeckel. 



Lithobotrys cribrosa, Ehrenberg, 1875, Abhandl. d. k. Akad. d. Wiss. Berlin, p. 76, Taf. iii. 



fig. 20. 



? Lithobotrys biceps, Ehrenberg, 1872, Abhandl. d. k. Akad. d. Wiss. Berlin, p. 295, Taf. ix. 

 fig. 23. 



Cephalis trilobate, separated by a slight collar constriction from the ovate thorax, which is 

 somewhat smaller. Occipital lobe very large, helmet-shaped, longer than the thorax and twice as 

 long as the two subspherical frontal lobes. Pores regular, circular, scarce. 



Dimensions. -Length of the shell Oil, breadth 0'05. 



Habitat. Fossil in Barbados. 



3. Botryopyle cephalodes, Haeckel. 



Lithocorythiwn cephalodes, Ehrenberg, 1875, Abhandl. d, k. Akad. d. Wiss. Berlin, p. 78, 

 Taf. iv. fig. 6. 



Cephalis quinquelobate, separated by a slight collar constriction from the larger conical 

 thorax, which is gradually dilated towards the wide mouth. Occipital lobe helmet-shaped, little 

 longer than the frontal half of the cephalis, which is divided into two pairs of lateral chambers, 

 corresponding to the four crossed pores of the sagittal septum, figured by Ehrenberg. The figure 

 of the latter is inverse, seen from the frontal face, a part of the frontal wall having been broken off. 



Dimensions. Length of the shell - 08, breadth 0'05. 



Habitat. Fossil in Barbados. 



4. Botryopyle dictyocephalus, n. sp. (PL 96, fig. 6). 



Cephalis multilobate, separated by an oblique constriction from the subcylindrical thorax, 

 which is somewhat larger and slightly curved. Occipital lobe conical, of the same length as the 

 posterior part of the triangular frontal half of the shell, which is divided into five to seven 

 lobes, two or three odd lobes in the median part, and one or two pairs of lateral lobes; very 

 variable in size and form of the lobes. Mouth of the thorax wide, truncate. 



Dimensions. Length of the shell 012, breadth 0'07. 



Habitat. Central Pacific, Station 271 to 274, depth 2350 to 2750 fathoms. 



5. Botryopyle inclusa, n. sp. (PI. 96, fig. 5). 



Cephalis multilobate, campanulate, separated by a sharp constriction from the inflated thorax, 

 which is nearly twice as long and broad. Both joints of the shell are irregularly lobate, with 

 numerous vaulted lobes of different sizes, and partly internal septa. Pores small and numerous. 



Dimensions. Length of the shell 01, breadth 0'06. 



Habitat. Mediterranean (Candia) Spratt, depth 1620 fathoms.
