Universally distributed and generally abundant, tlie best at Stns. 6 and 12, notably 

 at the latter. There is considerable variation at most Stns., the species merging 

 through specimens referable to d'Orbigny's M. ungeriana (ut sujjra) and M. akneriana 

 (d'O. 1846, FFV. p. 290, pi. xviii. figs. 16-21) towards M. seminulum. There is also 

 considerable difference in the shell-texture. Normally highly polished, it also occurs 

 with a matt surface, becoming first finely, and ultimately somewhat coarsely, aggluti- 

 nate. At Stn. 2 a a specimen was found with a cribrate aperture. 



59. Miliolina auberiana, var. stenostoma (Karrer). (Pi. XLII. fig. 32.) 



Quinqueloculina ungeriana, var. stenostoma Karrer, 1868, MFKB. p. 141, pi. ii. fig. 3. 

 1 Station. 



At Stn. 11 we found a single example of this beautifully decorated variety of 

 M. auheriana which differs from Karrer's figure only in the greater extent of the radial 

 grooves, which in the Kerimba specimen extend right across the face of the chambers. 

 Karrer's specimens were from the Miocene of Kostej. 



60. Miliolina cuvieriana (d'Orbigny). (Pi. XLII. figs. 33-36.)

Very poorly represented. Flardly any characteristic specimens, most of them varying 

 in the direction of M. auheriana. At Stn. "? X a small variety with a dull subaggiuti- 

 nate appearance occurs. At Stn. 11 a few specimens were found which we figure, 

 which probably represent a pauperate and undulate form of this species. There is 

 great variation among the few specimens found, some being regularly triangular in 

 section with prominent marginal edges of the chambers as in the type, while in others 

 the chambers are very broad and ribbon-like in section and twisted upon themselves.
