EXPLANATION OF PLATE 79 (LXXIX) 



All figures X 50. 

 Figures 1-2. — Globigerina sp. nov. ? 



Referred by Brady to G. bulloides d'Orbigny var. triloba Reuss. These figures have been referred by later 

 authors to G. triloba Reuss, but as Cushman (C.C.L.F.R., Vol. 22, Pt. 1, 1946, p. 21) has placed this species 

 in the genus Globigerinoides a new name is required for the form figured here. 

 Figures 3-7. — Globigerina bulloides d'Orbigny. 

 Figures 8-10. — Globigerina inflata d'Orbigny. 



Figs. 8, 9. Either Challenger Sta. 232, South of Japan, or Sta. 323, South Atlantic. (345 or 1900 fathoms) 

 Figures 11-16. — Globigerinoides rubra (d'Orbigny).* 



Figs. 11, 13-15. Challenger Sta. 338, South Atlantic. (1990 fathoms) 

 Fig. 12. Challenger Sta. 344, Ascension Island, South Atlantic. (420 fathoms) 

 Fig. 16. Challenger Sta. 346, South Atlantic. (2350 fathoms) 

 Referred to Globigerina by Brady and to Globigerinoides by Cushman (C.C.L.F.R., Vol. 3, No. 1, 1927, 



Figure 17. — Globigerina eggeri Rhumbler. 



Challenger Sta. 300, North of Juan Fernandez, E. Pacific. (1375 fathoms) 

 Referred by Brady to G. dubia Egger and to G. eggeri by Rhumbler (Nordische Plankton, Pt. 14, Foramini- 

 feren, 1900, p. 19). Cushman (Bull. Scripps Inst. Oceanogr., Techn. Ser., Vol. 1, No. 10, 1927, p. 172) referred 

 these figures to the adult form of G. conglomerata Schwager (see pi. LXXXI for figures referred to that species). 



*R. Todd (U.S.G.S. Prof. Paper 260-H, 1955, p. 368, footnote) cites Roland W. Brown as being of the opinion that a generic name 

 ending in -aides, an adjectival suffix meaning like, takes its gender from the gender of the generic name on which it is based, thus 

 Globigerina is feminine, therefore the present species becomes Globigerinoides rubra (d'Orbigny).
