Wiss., CI. II. vol. xviii. pt. ii. p. 310 (118), pi. ix. fig. 62.— 

 An ovoid inflated segment, constricted across the shortest 

 diameter, probably due to the conjunction of two spherical 

 segments. Five tubules disposed peripherally (?) around 

 the segment, three near one end and two at the other. 

 Surface of the inflated segment bearing numerous fine 

 prickles. Recent ; Coast of Western Australia. — Fig. 12. 



11. Bamulina glolulif era, De Amicis, 1895, ' II Naturalista Sici- 

 liano,' Anno xiv. p. 48, pi. i. figs. 14 a, b, c. — Three separate 

 segments, all more or less spherical, with stout cylindrical 

 stolon-tubes proceeding from them ; also with several smaller 

 tubes disposed over the surface. The test is covered with 

 fine prickles. Pliocene of Bonf ornello, Sicilj . — Figs. 13 a, h, c. 



12. Specimen B — Chapman Collection — A curved stolon-tube, 

 with two tubules proceeding out of it at right angles, on 

 the curved side. Gault ; Folkestone. 



13. C — Chapman Collection. — A much compressed segment, with 

 an irregular margin caused by the outgrowth of arrested 

 tubules, one of which is longer than the rest. In one part 

 of the segment there is a perforation, as though the margin 

 was there completed by the coalescence of three tubules. 

 Surface of test bearing a few fine prickles. Grault ; Folke- 

 stone. 



14. E — Chapman Collection. — See Journ. E. Micr. Soc. 1896, 

 pi. xii. fig. 3. — An elongate pyriform segment, terminating 

 at each end in a stolon-tube. The entire surface of the test 

 is clothed with fine prickles. Gault ; Folkestone. — Very
