72 SHALLOW-WATER FORAMINIFERA OF TORTUGAS REGION. 
Test much compressed, the very earliest ones milioline, later ones becoming 
spiroloculine, and finally, in the last-formed coil, more than 2 chambers 
appear, usually 3 making up a complete coil; wall very finely striate-reticu- 
late; periphery rounded or subcarinate; aperture a sieve-plate the entire 
height of the chamber, curved, with numerous pores. 
Diameter of the Tortugas specimens not exceeding 0.60 mm. 
This species has occurred at a number of stations, but usually as 
very few specimens. These are smaller and more delicate than those 
usually found in the Indo-Pacific, but have the same general char- 
acters. I have previously recorded it from the north coast of 
Jamaica, from the Tortugas, and elsewhere in the Gulf of Mexico.

This species occurs as single specimens at a few stations. The 
specimens are characteristic and similar to those which I found in 
the collection from the north coast of Jamaica. Most of the other 
records for it are from the Indo-Pacific, and it is one of the striking 
species which connects that area with the West Indian region.

figs. 14 to 16. 
The Tortugas specimens referred to this species are somewhat longer than 
broad, have the outer angle of the chamber convex, and the sides broadly 
rounded, the tooth projecting above the aperture somewhat, and the surface 
very smooth and polished, with a brilliant luster. 
The largest specimens measure nearly 1 mm. 
Such specimens are found at a number of stations, but not usually 
in great numbers. I have already recorded this species from the 
north coast of Jamaica, in shallow water, but there again only as 
single specimens from the three stations at which it occurred. 
Triloculina tricarinata d’Orbigny.

figs. 17 a, b. ; 
There are a very few specimens which can be referred to T. éri- 
carinata, and these are not of the typical form which is found in 
deeper water. They are more like some of the varieties which I 
have noted from shallower water in the Philippines.
