An allied species from the Korean dredgings (35 fathoms) is of 

 a rhomboidal shape and more solid ; and it has a sharper keel 

 and transverse striae or riblets, Arcinella Icevis of Philippi, a 

 Sicilian fossil, is perhaps my Becipula ovata from the ' Porcupine' 

 dredgings of 1869, and from Osterfiord in Norway, as well as the 

 Tellimya ovalis of Prof. G. 0. Sars from the Loffoden Isles. See 

 Friele, ' Bidrag til Vestlandets MoUuskfauna,' in Yidensk. Forh. 

 for 1875 ; and Sars, ' Bidrag til Kundskaben om Norges arktiske 

 fauna,' 1, Mollusca (1878), Suppl. p. 341, t. 33. f. 1, a-c.

 formations, in Scandinavia, Great Britain, and Sicily ; mostly in 

 " glacial " deposits. 



As usual in the case of tolerably common species like this, P. 

 noachina has received several other names. 



Attached to a living specimen of P. noachina from 420 fathoms 

 in the first ' Porcupine ' Expedition was a PlanorhuUna (one of 

 the Eoraminifera) of the same kind that has occurred in the Korean 

 dredgings. Mr. H. B. Brady tells me that this Planorlulina
