FOEAMINIFERA OF THE KERIMBA AECHIPELAGO. 579 



7 Sfations. 



Sparingly distributed and never common. The species attains a large size, especially 

 at Stn. 3, where some of the specimens were feebly reticalate between the costse. 

 Adelosine specimens were obtained from most of the Stns. where the type was preseot.

Generally distributed, but never very abundant; well-grown and large specimens 

 were found at many Stns., especially Stns. i and 5.

Generally distributed, but somewhat rare, except at Stn. 1. All our specimens have 

 a produced neck with everted rim, and in this feature approach d'Orbigny's drawing as 

 published by Fornasini [ut sicpra) much more closely than do Terquem's figures. 

 The Terquem and Karrer forms are apparently much nearer to d'Orbigny's allied 

 species Q. poeyana. The Kerimba specimens all have a very characteristic shell- 

 texture, being biscuit-like in colour and matt, without any trace of porcellanous 

 enamel. There is, however, no tendency to incorporate sand-grains. 



This species occurs also at Vavau, Friendly Is., 16 fms.

The " Planche inedite " of d'Orbigny, as amplified by Terquem, serves to identify 

 a form which is somewhat sparingly distributed in the dredgings, but occurs in 

 considerable abundance at a few Stns, The original " Planche " represents a finely 

 striate and edentate quinqueloculine form of compressed outline, but Terquem figures
