184. Lituola Soldanii. New variety. [Type : Lituola ruiutiloidea, 

 Lamarck.] This is a relatively large and straight Lituola, 

 having the shape of a Nodosaria. It has a variable number of 

 chambers, from about four to eight, each much subdivided and 

 labyrinthic, as is the case also in the large crozier-shaped 

 variety that occurs in the Chalk. Soldani has figured this 

 straight subcylindrical Lituola (Testaceog. ii. pi. 3. fig. cc ; and 

 Saggio Orittog. pi. 19. fig. 92 Z), from San Quirico. Our finest 

 specimens of this variety are from the Miocene sandy clays 

 of San Domingo. It occurs recent at a depth of 40 and 47 

 fathoms off the Abrolhos Bank (Lat. 23°07'S.; Long. 41°17'W.). 

 The deposits on this bank have peculiar faunal analogies with 

 the Italian Tertiaries.
