It is not without hesitation that I refer a lot of thin, slender, dark gray, and 
rough, straight, or somewhat bent at one end, very tapering tubes, to the above 
form of Brady; but in all other respects except the black gray color of the 
agglutinated materials they agree with the type. As usual the primordial 
portion is wanting, and a tube open at both ends only remains. Its length 
is somewhat more than 10 mih. 
Pacific. 885 fathoms ; not plenty.

Very stout, thick-walled specimens occur in “ Albatross’ 
bore of the tube is in such specimens narrower than in the more thin-shelled 
collections. The 
ones, and the rings of growth or the spurious septation very faint. The aper- 
tures are often somewhat constricted on the tapering ends. Sometimes one of 
the tube ends seems to be closed by a cribrous lamina. Attains a length of 
95 mm. Forms with a more rough and sandy surface (Pl. I. Figs. 11, 12) 
oceur also, although some doubt may arise about their ranging with the species 
on record ; the circular impressions on this form are nearly obsolete. 
Pacific. 660-1201 fathoms ; not scarce.
