Clay (Kimmeridge) and from the, Upper Portland Limestone (Dorsetshire); and German 
observers figure the same form from the Cretaceous system of Bohemia. It is of fre- 
quent occurrence in the Lower and Middle Tertiaries of Northern and Central Germany 
and England, in the Subapennine Tertiaries (Pliocene) of Italy, in the Crag of our Eastern 
Counties and of Antwerp, and, lastly, in the Posttertiary (Glacial) elays of Scotland and 
Norway. 
In the recent condition it is eosmopolitan, preferring pe waters; indeed, except 
for the fact that it was one of the forms dredged by Prof. Sars in depths of 300 fathoms, 
it might have been set down as limited to an outside range of 80 or 90 fathoms. It is 
found on every portion of the shores of Great Britain, in the Arctic Sea, on the Nor- 
wegian coast, in the Mediterranean, in the West Indies, on the shores of Tasmania, and, 
indeed, in Foraminiferous sands from whatever latitude derived.
