Variety differing from the typical form in the more globular body of 

 the test, the sides curving inward toward the base without a definite 

 angle, and the surface smooth and translucent above the costate portion. 



The types of this variety are also from Timms Point, near San Pedro, 

 California. 



Stations: C-10, 1160, and 640.

Test elongate, flask-shaped, initial end with a short spine, apertural 

 end extended out into a long cylindrical neck, basal portion of the test 

 with numerous longitudinal costae, upper portion smooth. 



Our figured specimen seems to be very close to the type but other 

 figures referred to this species differ in the coarseness of the costae and 

 the shape of the test. 



Stations: A- 16, 1009, 1074, and 1174. 



Distribution. — ^With the exception of Station A- 16, Simpson Bay, 

 Alaska, all of the other stations are off the Channel Islands. The average 

 depth is 40 fms. There were only a few specimens at all of these stations.
