NO. II FORAMINIFERA OF VENEZUELA GRAVELL 3 



D. (Astcrocyclina) asfcrisca (Guppy) 



venczuclana (H. K. Hodson) 

 suliana (H. K. Hodson) 

 pariaiia (H. K. Hodson) 

 trinidadeiisis (H. K. Hodson) 

 weeksi (H. K. Hodson) 



maracaibensis (H. K. Hodson) 

 parva (H. K. Hodson) 

 aurarensis (H. K. Hodson) 



Unfortunately, the localities from which the, above were obtained 

 were referred to only by numbers, no description being given of them 

 other than the states in which they occur. 



As the material from Venezuela that I have studied consists almost 

 entirely of indurated rock, I have not been able to recognize Mrs. 

 Hodson's variants. 



The following species of Lepidocyclina are reported by Mrs. 

 Hodson from the Eocene of Venezuela: 



L. {Lepidocyclina) trinitatis H. Douville 



carribbeanensis H. K. Hodson 



venezuclana H. K. Hodson 

 hubbardi H. K. Hodson 



bolivarensis H. K. Hodson 



aurarensis H. K. Hodson 

 zveeksi H. K. Hodson 



In regard to the above reputed species and subspecies, although I 

 have not been able to study the types of them, it appears that they 

 are all variants of L. (Lepidocyclina) trinitatis H. Douville. A large 

 suite of material from locality 163 contained abundant specimens of 

 L. trinitatis. These specimens were free from the matrix. All of the 

 above reputed species and subspecies of Mrs. Hodson were represented 

 by specimens in this collection. However, these forms intergrade so 

 gradually that it is impossible to draw any distinct lines between the 

 various forms. For this reason I believe that the reputed species and 

 subspecies listed above are all variants of L. trinitatis H. Douville. 



The following species are also described in the same paper : 



L. (Lepidocyclina) maracaibensis H. K. Hodson 

 {Nephrolepidi}ia) kochi H. K. Hodson 

 (Polylepidina) ctdiana H. K. Hodson 



inirandana H. K. Hodson 

 (Polylepidina?) chiirugiujritana H. K. Hodson 

 sp. H. K. Hodson 



Also two new species of Miogypsina from Oligocene-Miocene : 



Miogypsina hawkinsi H. K. Hodson 



venesnelana H. K. Hodson
