Radiolaria of the Arctic Expedition, 1875-76. 431 
bered 8 and 9 respectively, though not strictly arctic in lati- 
tude, pertain to an adjacent and much richer zoological area, 
and are within Davis Straits, which may be regarded as a sort 
of natural boundary. The following notes are abstracted from 
Mr. Norman’s summary. 
HOLsTEInBborG HARBOUR (lat. 66° 40! N.), 7-35 fathoms. 
The more remarkable Foraminifera were :—7Trochammina 
gordialis, J. & P.; Lituola canariensis, D’Orb.; Textularia bi- 
formis, P. & J.; and Bolivina punctata, D’Orb. 
GopHAVN Harzour, Disco (lat. 69° 10’ N.), 5-20 fathoms. 
Thirty-six species identified, amongst them :—Dentalina 
consobrina, D’Orb. (fide P.& J.), Polymorphina burdigalensis, 
D’Orb.; Pullenia spheroides, D’Orb. ; Verneuilina polystropha, 
Reuss; Cassidulina obtusa, D’Orb.; Pulvinulina Karstent, 
Reuss; and Discorbina obtusa, D’Orb. 
LizveLty Harsour, Disco (lat. 70° N.*), 5-20 fathoms. 
The Foraminifera exhibited a marked parallelism with 
those recorded by Mr. G. M. Dawson from Gaspé Bayt, in 
the Gulf of St. Lawrence. Twenty-eight species were noted, 
including :—Rhabdopleura abyssorum, Parker ; Lituola cassis, 
Parker; Nonionina labradorica, Parker; and Bulimina pyrula, 
D’Orb. 
Station No. 5. Lat. 66° 59' N., long. 55° 27' W., 57 
fathoms. 
Thirty-five Foraminifera observed, ten belonging to the 
genus Lagena. The list contains, amongst others :—Lagena 
striatopunctata, P. & J.; Lituola globigeriniformis, P. & J.; 
Cyclammina cancellata, H. B. Brady, MS.; and Bulimina 
elegantissima, D’Orb. 
Sration No. 8. Lat. 62° 6’ N., long. 55° 56’ W., 1350 fa- 
thoms. 
Contained many of the more common Foraminifera. The 
following are noted :—Nodosaria Schlichtiz, Reuss ; Orbitolites 
tenuissimus, Carpenter ; Pullenia quinqueloba, Reuss ; and Li- 
tuola nautiloidea, Lamk. 
Station No. 9. Lat. 59° 10’ N., long. 50° 25’ W., 1750 
fathoms. 
Remarkable for the abundance and variety of arenaceous 
* The latitudes of Holsteiborg, Godhavn, and Lievely Hazbvuurs are 
not given in the Report, and the last of the three does not appear in any 
map I have access to; but, for the purpose of comparison with the range 
of the other localities, the figures stated are near enough. 
+ It must be remembered, nevertheless, that Gaspé Bay is in lat. 48° 
to 49° N., or fully a degree south of the coast of Cornwall, though more 
or less Arctic in climatal conditions.
