226 MESSES. BEADY, PAEKEE, AND JONES ON 



and probably due to the enlargement by external means of one of the normal pores of 

 the shell. Such orifices, not at all uncommon in dead shells, though seldom quite so 

 round and regularly shaped as those of the drawings, were regarded by d'Orbigny and 

 many subsequent authors as the general aperture. Figure 8 is a double specimen (see 

 Chall. Report, loc. cit.). Generally distributed. 



Pullenia, Parker & Jones. 



90. Pullenia sph^eroides, d'Orbigny, sp. (Plate XLIII. figs. 21, 24.)

At 260 fathoms and 40 fathoms. 



91. Pullenia quinqueloba, Reuss. (Plate XLIII. figs. 22, 23.)

At 260 fathoms. 



Sph^eroidina, d'Orbigny. 



92. Sph^eroidina bulloides, d'Orbigny. (Plate XLV. figs. 9, 10, 11.) 

 Sphceroidina bulloides, Chall. Report, p. 620, pi. 84. figs. 1-7.

The specimens, as may be seen by the figure, are by no means typical. Instead of 

 the normal, compact, subconical shell, the test is slightly convex or depressed, and the 

 segments are comparatively few in number, thin-walled, and much inflated. Examples 

 with these characters are moderately common at 940 fathoms. 



Discorbina, Parker & Jones. 



94. Discorbina globularis, d'Orbigny, sp. (Plate XLVI. fig. 6.) 

 Discorbina globularis, Chall. Report, p. 643, pi. 86. figs. 8-13. 



A few poor specimens in the shallower soundings.
