Characters.—Shell elongate, subcylindrical, tapering at both extremities. Chambers 
few (often only three), oblique, somewhat convex. Septal lines but little depressed. 
Surface smooth. Length 135 to jl inch. 
Roemer's name appears to be the earliest for the feeble, few-chambered, fusiform 
members of the genus, forming a long series downwards (if we may be allowed the 
expression) from P. lactea (typica). The shell originally figured as Globulina Jusiformis 
differs from Polymorphina lactea only in being slightly narrower and having its base 
somewhat drawn out to a point; and from this form we are led by imperceptible gra- 
dations to specimens with the elongate fusiform contour of Globulina 
porrecta, Reuss, or, it may be, to some of even slenderer proportions. 
Roemer's figure, as nearly as can be made out, coincides in general 
features with P. liassica, Strickland (Woodeut €), Globulina minima, 
Guttulina ovalis, and G. vitrea, Bornemann, Gl. prisca, Reuss, and ña 
Gl. nuda, Schwager,—an interesting series, as it Pon peehenda SOME, Polymorpliina kanis, 
TER I genus, geologically speaking. Strickland. .
