fig. 3 (1808).

figs. 93, 94 (1858). 

 Trochamina inflata, H. B. Brady, op. cit., p. 338, pi. xli. fig. 4, a-c. 



Habitat. — Brackish water pools by the shore near Aberlady ; vicinity 

 of Inchkeith, and others parts of the Forth ; rare, except at Aberlady, 

 where it is comparatively common. This seems to be an inshore, rather 

 than a deep water species. Colour brownish. 



Trochamina macrescens (?) Brady. 



Trochamina inflata, var. macrescens, Brady, Ann. and Mag. Nat. 



Hist., ser. iv. vol. vi. p. 290, pi. xi. fig. 5, a-c. (1870). 

 Trochamina macrescens, Robertson, Fauna and Flora of the W. of 

 Scotland, p. 51 (1876). 

 Habitat. — With the last, but not so common ; the cells of this species 

 are concave above and below, and look as if the sides had been partially 

 crushed in. The cells are not all equally concave, those in the centre 

 being frequently only flattened — probably a form of H. canariense. 

 Trochamina ochracea (Williamson). 



Rotalina ochracea, Williamson, Rec. For. Gt. Brit., p. 55, pi. iv. 



fig. 112; pi. v. fig. 113 (1858). 

 Trochamina ochracea, H. B. Brady, Foram. of the Chall. Exp., 

 p. 338 (1884). 



Habitat. — Off St Monance, common ; other parts of the Forth rather rare. 

 This is a very small species, ' and,' as Brady remarks, 'composed of a large 

 number of segments.' ' On the inferior side the septal lines are arcuate, 

 'flexuose, and very prominent.' It is not uncommon in the British seas, 

 though not previously recorded for the Forth.

figs. 4-6 (1846). 

 Textularia gramen, H. B. Brady, op. cit., p. 365, pi. xliii. figs. 



9-10. 



Habitat. — Off St Monance, and from other parts of the Forth. This 

 seems to be a generally distributed species. The test is of an elongated 

 tapering form, is not so compressed as T. sagittula, and the lateral edges 

 are rounded instead of being sharply keeled. 

 Textularia variabilis, Williamson.
