FOEAMINIFEEA OF THE IvEEIMBA AECHIPELAGO. 545 



5. Calcarina calcar (Mad. & Maur.), TMC. p. 276. no. l = RotaUa calcar (d'Orb.). 



6. Calcarina quoyi (Maur.), TMC. p. 276. no. Q— Calcarina Mspida Brady. 



7. Calcarina gaimardli (Maur.), TMC. p. 276. no. 2= Calcarina spengleri (Linne) {cf. P. 



1908, SON. pi. iii. figs. 1, 2). 



8. Globigerina globularis (Maur.), TMC. p. 277. no. 3. The Paris type is a large form of 



G. bulloides near G. conglobata Brady. 



9. Trimcatulina refulgens (Mad.), TMC. p. 279. no. 5. 



10. Operculina madagascariensis (Mad.), TMC. p. 281. no. 4. No types found. The drawing 



on the finished " Planche inedite" is indistinguishable from 0. complanata, of which species 

 all the d'Orbignyan types are represented at Kerimba. 



11. Anomalina punctulata (Maur.), TMC. p. 282. no. 1. The Paris type is obscured, but is 



apparently a carinate shell which might be a Cristellarian, but the figure on the " Planche 

 inedite " is a beautiful pink test suggesting a regular individual of A. polymorpha 

 Costa. 



12. Polystotnella angularis (Mad. & Maur.), TMC. p. 284. no. 2. The Paris type is typical 



P. craticulata (F. & M.), whilst the La Rochelle co-type is typical P. crispa (Linne). 



13. Nonionina communis (Mad.), TMC. p. 294. no. 20. Both at Paris and La Rochelle the 



type-specimens are intermediate between A^. houeana d'Orb. and A'", turgida Williamson. 



14. Quinqueloculina flavescens (Mad.), TMC. p. 302. no. 30. The type in Paris is intermediate 



between M. seminulum (Linne) and M. circularis (Bornemann). 



15. Amphistegina lessonii (Maur.), TiMC. p. 304. no. 3. See Introductory Note. 



16. Amphistegina madagascariensis (Mad.), TMC. p. 304. no. 5. The Paris type is the high- 



domed plano-convex form, noted by us sub A. I'esaonii. The La Rochelle specimen is an 

 unrecognisable balsam-mounted shell. 



Amphistegina gihha, TMC. p. 304. no. 6, is only recorded by d'Orbigny from the 

 West Indies (see No. 459 «, p. 737). Of the other species recorded by d'Orbigny from 

 Madagascar and Mauritius, Textularia viarginata, TMC. p. 263. no. 17 (no types 

 found) is a carinate form; Nonionina elyptica, TMC. p. 294. no. 16 (no types found) 

 a semi-carinate N. scaplia in the sketches for the unfinished " Planches inedites," and 

 Sphceroidina bulloides, TMC. p. 267. no. 1, have not been identified by us in the 

 Kerimba material *. 



As illustrative of the fact that the Khizopodal fauna of the Kerimba Archipelago 

 is probably representative of the shallow waters of the adjacent seas, including 

 Madagascar, we may mention that a very small sample of material from Ngoney 

 (Mad.) shallow-water — probably anchor-mud — which has come into our possession 



* We may say in this place that it is our hope and intention in due course to reorganize the d'Orbigny type- 

 specimens in Paris, and to complete as far as possible, and to publish with the co-operation of Prof. Marcelin 

 Boule, Director of the MuseePaleontologique, the whole of the " Planches inedites " of d'Orbiguy. Until this is 

 done the great majority of d'Orbigny's names in the TMC. 1826 remain nomina nuda. Very few students of 

 the Foraminifera appear to have consulted the " Planches inedites " since they were left unfinished by d'Orbigny, 

 and many of his names have been applied to, and accepted for, species which differ essentially from his figures 

 and from his type-specimens.
