Characters. — Lateral surfaces of the chambers plane, with or without limbate 

 sutures; the peripheral margin channelled; centre usually somewhat concave. 



The gradational differences of the test, due to greater or less amount of 

 shell-growth along the edges of the chambers, give rise to some confusion in the 

 classification of the noticeable varieties. If the exogenous or extra shell-growth 

 predominates on the edges of the periphery, it makes a channel along the outer 

 margin. This feature characterises d'Orbigny's well-shaped Spiroloculina canali-
