FORAMTNIFERA OF THE SCOTTISH NATIONAL ANTAECTIC EXPEDITION. 1025 



the living state by the plankton net wherever Foraminifera have been collected, all over 

 the world, and their tests form marine deposits from almost every latitude, down to 

 depths of nearly 3000 fathoms. 



Globigerina injlata, d'Orbigny. 

 Obtained (fairly common) at Stations 342, 346, 451, 459, and 467. 



Globigerina triloba, Reuss. 

 Obtained (few) at Stations 342, 459, and 467. 



Globigerina digitata, H. B. Brady. 



This delicate, beautifully formed variety was found (rare) at one station only, 459, 

 1998 fathoms. G. digitata is a rare species; its previous records are, three stations 

 in the South Atlantic, and six in the South Pacific. The Scotia station is the most 

 southern point at which this species has been. collected ; it is not known, so far as I am 

 aware, from the North Atlantic. 



Globigerina conglobata, H. B. Brady. 

 A few specimens of this species were found at Station 459. 



Globigerina sacculifera, H. B. Brady. 



A number of specimens of this large tropical form were obtained at Station 459. 

 [It was also taken in plenty at Station 81, 18° 24' S., 37° 58' W., 36 fathoms, coral and 

 sand.] 



Globigerina dubia, Egger. 



This thick-shelled variety was obtained (rare) at Station 421, 2487 fathoms ; this is 

 the most southerly record for the species. 



Globigerina (Orbulina) universa, d'Orbigny. 



A few small specimens of this common form were obtained from Station 459, 1998 

 fathoms, and in moderate numbers from Stations 118, 2^, and 346, 56 fathoms. 



Genus Pullenia, Parker and Jones. 

 Pullenia quinqueloba, Reuss. 



This widely distributed species has been obtained from as far north as lat. 62° 6' N., 

 and southward to the Antarctic Continent. Its range of depth extends from 30 to 

 2750 fathoms. It is found in abundance in the Faroe Channel, and has been taken 

 sparingly off the shores of the British Islands. I obtained Pullenia quinqueloba in 

 moderate numbers from the deposit taken at Stations 459 and 467.
