58 REPORT ON FORAMINIFERA AND OSTRACODA 



Dr. Brady's figured examples came from the coast of Papua. Rupert Jones states 

 that it is " not uncommon in the Mediterranean, in shallow and moderately deep 

 waters." As a fossil it occurs in the Oligocene of Port Phillip (Kackeraboite Creek) ; 

 in the Miocene of the Vienna Basin and Malaga ; and in the Pliocene of Sutton, Suffolk, 

 England. Its present occurrence is therefore remarkable for its high latitude. 



Occurrence. — Sample No. 8, 353 fathoms, very rare. 



Genus — Miliolina, Williamson, 1858 



Miliolina subrotunda, Montagu, sp., var. striata, var. nov. (Plate I, fig. 3) 

 Reference to type species. — Miliolina subrotunda, Montagu, sp., H. B. Brady, 1884, 



Rep. Chatt., vol. ix, p. 168, pi. v, figs. 10, 11. 



The present example is a small, neat specimen ornamented with distinct striae 



concentric with the curved outline of the shell. It calls to mind Brady's M . circularis, 



var. sublineata* but the type of shell is that of M. subrotunda, both as to aperture and 



contour. 



Occurrence. — Sample No. 8, 353 fathoms, one specimen. 



Miliolina vulgaris, d'Orbigny, sp. (Plate I, fig. 4) 



Quinqueloculina vulgaris, d'Orbigny, 1826, Ann. Sci. Nat., vol. vii, p. 302, No. 33. 

 Miliolina auberiana, d'Orbigny, sp., H. B. Brady, 1884, Rep. Chatt., vol. ix, p. 162, 

 pi. v, figs. 8, 9. Chapman, 1909, Sub-Antarctic Islands of New Zealand, vol. i, art. 

 xv, p. 320. 



Of cosmopolitan distribution, this species is here extended farther south than any 

 specimens hitherto recorded. 



Occurrence. — Sample No. 8, 353 fathoms, one specimen. 



Miliolina bicornis, Walker and Jacob, sp. (Plate I, fig. 5) 



Serpula bicornis, Walker and Jacob, 1798, Adams' Essays, Kanmacher's ed., 

 p. 633, pi. xiv, fig. 2. Triloculina brongniartii, d'Orbigny, 1826, Ann. Sci. Nat., vol. 

 vii, p. 300, No. 23. Miliolina bicornis, d'Orbigny, sp., H. B. Brady, 1884, vol. ix, 

 p. 171, pi. vi, figs. 9, 11, 12. 



A very small, but otherwise well-marked and typical specimen. It is of great 

 interest to discover this species so far south, since it has been hitherto confined to 

 temperate and tropical waters. Hence the small size of the present example. The 

 depth is also a record, the Challenger finding it only as low as 120 fathoms. 



Occurrence. — Sample No. 8, 353 fathoms, one specimen. 



Miliolina agglutinans, d'Orbigny, sp. (Plate I, fig. 6) 



Quinqueloculina agglutinans, d'Orbigny, 1839, Foram. Cuba, p. 168, pi. xii, figs. 

 11-13. Miliolina agglutinans, d'Orbigny, sp., H. B. Brady, 1884, Rep. Chatt., vol. 

 ix, p. 180, pi. viii, figs. 6, 7. Chapman, 1907, Journ. Linn. Soc. Lond., Zool., vol. xxx, 

 p. 20, pi. ii, fig. 36. 



As might be expected, the majority of the miliolines in the fine, terrigenous soundings 

 of the Antarctic are mainly arenaceous forms, of which this is amongst the commonest. 

 Its southern distribution includes Cape of Good Hope, 150 fathoms ; Prince Edward
