LINCOLNSHIRE CHALK FORAMINIFERA. 
C. S. CARTER, Louth. 
Mr. W. Hampton has recently presented to the Louth 
Museum, a ‘type’ slide containing a series of foraminifera 
from the chalk near Louth. As the particulars of these do 
not appear to have previously been published, I give the 
following details. 
The type slide is divided into one hundred numbered 
squares, and the list is made out on a printed form numbered 
to correspond. 
Foraminifera—Type slide No. 12. L.C. Locality :—Louth, 
Lincolnshire. Date :—January 15th, 1880. Nature of 
Material :—Chalk Powder from Flints, Boswell Ride and 
Crowson’s Pit. Charles Elcock, Belfast.

Very rare. | 66. Cytherella williamsont. 
On the back of the slide, ‘ 61 to 80, Spicules, etc., etc.’ 
These numbers, 61 to 80, includes, besides those given in 
the list, fragments of small specimens of Terebratulina lata, 
fragments of Bryozoa and two specimens, very small, of 
Porosphera globulosa. ? 
In addition are some separate slides, two being labelled, 
Pulvinulina micheliniana, Middle Chalk, Boswell Ride, and 
Frondicularia elliptica, Middle Chalk, Boswell Ride. 
I ought, perhaps, to mention that ‘ Boswell Ride’ is in 
the Holaster planus zone, and ‘ Crowson’s Pit,’ better known 
to us as Saturday Pits, is in T. gracilis zone.
