 This seems to agree with Soldani's figure 

 chosen by d'Orbigny for his " depressa " 

 (see Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist., ser. 3, vol. xvi, 

 p. 33, 1865), but that was already the planu- 

 lata of Lamarck.

Characters. — Lateral surfaces of the chambers plane and parallel to the axis of 

 the shell ; shell sometimes slightly concave ; periphery usually flat and square ; 

 the surfaces of the chambers are sometimes slightly concave. Lamarck indicated 

 three forms of his Miliolites planulata, namely : a, the typical planulata ; /3, less 

 flattened, var. turgidula; and y, thin and keeled, pianissimo, (see 'Ann. Mag. 

 Nat. Hist.,' ser. 3, vol. v, 18G0, p. 470). The second of these perhaps may have 

 corresponded with the form named by Williamson Spirolocidina depressa, var. 

 rotundata (' Rec. Brit. For.,' 1858, p. 82, fig. 178), and probably with Sp. nitida, 

 d'Orb. (' Ann. Mag. Nat. Hist.,' ser. 4, vol. viii, 1871, p. 248, pi. viii, fig. 24), and 

 Sp. rotunda, 2 d'Orb. (ibid., fig. 25), excepting as to the shape of outline. The name 



1 The section given at p. 202 is that of M. excavata. 



2 Not rotundata, as printed loc. cit.
