Quinqueloculina fusca. Somewhat later, however, the typical M. agglu- 

 tinans was found in dredgings from the Hebrides, and it has since 

 been obtained on the Atlantic shores of Ireland by Mr. Wright, and in 

 the Estuary of the Dee by Mr. Siddall.

 The specimens figured by Messrs. Balkwill and Wright, under the 

 name 0. carinatum, do not appear to me to differ in any important 

 particular from 0. inconstans. It is true they are much smaller than 

 even the small examples of the latter species obtained from oceanic 

 dredgings, but this is sufficiently accounted for by depth and local 

 conditions. Obtained also by Mr. Wright on the south-west of Ireland, 

 26 fathoms ; and by Mr. Siddall in the Estuary of the Dee.
