 Figs. 9-13, X 20-25; Figs. 14-21, 24, X 35; Fig. 23, X 60. 

 Figures 1, 2. — Textularia goesii Cushman. 



Challenger Sta. 174C, Fiji, Pacific. (210 fathoms) 

 Referred by Brady to T. trochus d'Orbigny (a Marssonella, as noted earlier) and to T. goesii by Cushman 

 (U.S.N. M. Bull. 71, Pt. 2, 1911, p. 15) a Hawaiian species. 

 Figure 3. — Textulariella barrettii (Jones and Parker). 



Challenger Sta. 122, South Atlantic. (350 fathoms) 

 Referred by Brady to T. trochus d'Orbigny, and by Cushman to 7". goesii (see above), a Hawaiian species 

 with non-labyrinthic textularian structure. 

 Figures 4, 5. — Dorothia pseudoturris (Cushman). 



Challenger Sta. 24, West Indies. (390 fathoms) 

 Referred by Brady to Textularia turris d'Orbigny and by Cushman to Textularia pseudoturris (U.S.N.M. 

 Bull. 104, Pt.'3, 1922, p. 19). Cushman later (C.L.F.R. Spec. Publ. No. 8, 1937, p. 100) transferred this species 

 to Dorothia. 

 Figures 6-8. — Textulariella barrettii (Jones and Parker)? 



Figs. 6, 8. Challenger Sta. 33, off Bermuda, Atlantic. (435 fathoms) 

 Fig. 7. Challenger Sta. 23, West Indies. (390 fathoms) 

 Referred by Brady and most later authors to Textularia barrettii Jones and Parker and placed in Textulariella 

 (as genotype) by Cushman (C. C.L.F.R., Vol. 3, p. 24). Palmer (Mem. Soc. Cubana Hist. Nat., Vol. 12, No. 4, 

 1938, p. 300) suggests that these may be a form of Cuneolina angusta Cushman. Hofker (Spolia Zool. Mus. 

 Hauniensis, Vol. 15, 1956, p. 31) from a study of West Indian material reached the conclusion that Cuneolina 

 angusta is the microspheric form of Textulariella barrettii. 

 Figures 9-11. — Textularia aspera Brady. 



Figs. 9, 11. Porcupine, N. Atlantic (deep water). 



Fig. 10. Knight Errant Sta. 7, Faroe Channel, N. Atlantic. (530 fathoms) 

 Thalmann refers figs. 9-13 to Textularia tuberosa d'Orbigny (Eclog. geol. Helvet., Vol. 25, No. 2, 1932, p. 

 301) but as no grounds for this are presented and moreover Brady's figures differ considerably from the For- 

 nasini figures of T. tuberosa, these figures have been selected as representing T. aspera Brady. (See below for 

 figs. 12, 13.) 

 Figures 12, 13. — Dorothia scabra (Brady). 



Challenger Sta. 23, West Indies. (450 fathoms) 

 Referred by Brady to Textularia aspera, with figs. 9-11 (see above). These can be matched quite closely 

 to specimens of D. scabra from Challenger Sta. 24, West Indies, and are also very similar to figures of that 

 species given by Cushman (C.L.F.R. Spec. Publ. 8, 1937, pi. 11, figs. 4a-b). 

 Figures 14-18. — Bigenerina nodosaria d'Orbigny. 



Figs. 14-17. Porcupine Sta. 10, West of Ireland, Atlantic. 

 Fig. 18. Porcupine Sta. 6, off Ireland, Atlantic. (90 fathoms) 

 Figures 19-24. — Bigenerina cylindrica Cushman. 



Fig. 19. Porcupine Sta. 18, West of Ireland, N. Atlantic. (183 fathoms) 

 Figs. 20-22. Porcupine Sta. AA, off Skye, Scotland, N. Atlantic. (45-60 fathoms) 

 Referred by Brady to Bigenerina digitata d'Orbigny and by Cushman (U.S.N.M. Bull 104, Pt. 3, 1922, p. 

 26) to Bigenerina cylindrica. Hofker (Pubbl. Staz. Zool. di Napoli, Vol. 12, Fasc. 1, 1932, pp. 97-100) placed 

 Brady's figures 19-24 and Cushman's Bigenerina cylindrica in synonymy with Clavulina cylindrica d'Orbigny. 

 Comparison with d'Orbigny's original reference ("espece finement striee en long") and the later figure and 

 description of Fornasini (Riv. Ital. Pal., Vol. 3, 1897, p. 14, tf.) indicate that d'Orbigny's Clavulina cylindrica 

 and the present species are two different forms, and Cushman's name has been retained here. Should it be 

 found that Brady and Cushman's species is triserial in the initial portion and not biserial as held by Cushman, 

 then a new name will be required.
