Radiolaria of the Arctic Expedition, 1875-76. 427 
C. Off Cape Sabine, Smith Sound, 50 fathoms, lat. 78° 44! N. 
D. Off coor Island, Smith Sound, 210 fathoms, lat. 78° 
44'N. 
The former of these, from shallower water, contains but few 
species ; the latter gives a tolerably rich list of Foraminifera— 
Polystomella arctica particularly fine and abundant, the genera 
Lagena, Cassidulina, Truncatulina, Pulvinulina, and Nonio- 
nina all well represented. There were in addition a few 
Ostracoda *. 
E. Off Cape Victoria, Bache Island, 35 fathoms, lat. 79° 14! 
N 
The genus 7runcatulina by far the most abundant, asso- 
ciated with Noninonia, Polystomella, and other shallow-water 
types. Contained also Ostracoda of five species and a few 
Coscinodisct. 
F. Between Walrus Shoal and Victoria Head, Sept. 8, 1876, 
57 fathoms, lat. 79° 26’ N. 
A poor lot, containing little beyond Cassidulina, Nonionina, 
and the weaker forms of Polystomella, with one or two Radio- 
laria. The only specimen of Pulvinulina Micheliniana, a 
common surface form in the North Atlantic, found in the 
entire collection, was in this material. 
G. and H. Franklin-Pierce Bay, lat. 79° 28! N. 
The former (G) refers to two soundings, in 13 fathoms and 
15 fathoms respectively ; the latter (H) to two in 46 fathoms. 
The contents of all four were much alike, sandy mud with small 
worn stones; those from the greatest depth contained the 
largest variety of organisms. The salient types of Foramini- 
fera in all are Letuola, Truncatulina, and Polystomella. The 
shallow-water material furnished the only specimens found of 
the genus Discorbina. It contained in addition a number of 
diatoms, which my friend Mr. F. Kitton, of Norwich, tells 
me are as follows :—T*riceratium arcticum ; Biddulphia, sp. ; 
Rhabdonema Croziert ; Grammatophora marina; and Actino- 
ptychus undulatus. A few valves of Ostracoda were also met 
with. 
I. Allman Bay, Sept. 14, 1876, 25 fathoms, lat. 79° 30! N. 
The Bay between Cape Hawks and Cape d’Urville. 
A tube full of sand and stones, but rich in Foraminifera. 
The genus Lagena in considerable variety, with Polymorphina, 
* The Ostracoda were carefully preserved throughout, and form the 
subject of a separate notice by my brother, Dr. G. 8. SHY
