A pygmy form of this species is not seldom met with in the Caribbean Sea 
in 300 fathoms water. A variety of higher development that Brady has de- 
scribed under a separate denomination (P. acervalis) is also joined with the 
type, but of more rare occurrence. 
Caribbean Sea. 300 fathoms (Goés).

A. form that can scarcely be defined with ordinary characteristics, so great 
are its variations of form, as shown on our Plate. 
Caribbean Sea. 400 fathoms; in certain places not scarce (Goós).

A few specimens of this remarkable Foraminifer, most of them in a half- 
grown state, have been met with in the Pacific, usually attached to arms 
of Rhabdammina. The last convolution is wider than usual in Northern 
Specimens. 
Pacific, off Acapulco. 772 fathoms. 
GYPSINA. CARTER.

A variety elosely allied to the type, from which it differs only in its lenticular 
shape, and its more plainly differentiated set of the central cycle of chambers. 
It is not found affixed. 
Caribbean Sea. 400 fathoms; scarce (Goés).
