Part III. — Eighth Annual Report 
ASTRORHIZED.E. 
Psammosphivra fusca, F. E. Schulze. 
J'mmmosphcera fusca, F. E. Schulze, II. Jahresberichte d. Komm. 
Untersuckt d. deutsch. Meere., p. 113, pi. ii. fig. 8, a-f 
(1874). 
Psammosph&ra fusca, H. B. Brady, Foram. of the Chall. Exp., p. 
249, pi. xviii. figs. 1-8 (1884). 
Habitat. — East of Inchkeith, not common. This species has been 
obtained off Loch Scavaig, Skye, in 45 to 60 fathoms. It has also been 
found in seven of the Challenger stations in the South Atlantic in depths 
of from 150 to 2800 fathoms, and in the North Atlantic from 440 to 2750 
fathoms. 
LlTUOLIDiE. 
Reophax fusiformis (Williamson). 
Proteonino fusiformis, Williamson, Rec. Foram. Gt. Brit., p. 1, 
pi. i. fig. 1 (1858). 
Reophax fusiformis, H. B. Brady, op. ext., p. l!90, pi. xxx. figs. 
7-11 (1884). 
Habitat. — Largo Bay, off St Monance, and other parts of the Forth, 
but nowhere very common — a much more robust species than R. 
scorpiurus. 
Reophax nodulosa (1) H. B. Brady. 
Reophax nodulosa, Brady,* Quart. Jour. Micr. Sci., vol. xix. 
N. S., p. 52, pi. iv., figs. 7, 8 (1879) j Brady, Foram. Chall. 
Exped., p. 394, pi. xxii. figs. 1-9 (1884). 
Habitat. — Off St Monance, Largo Bay, and other parts of the Forth, 
frequent. This is a very variable species as regards size. The Forth 
specimens are very small, but H. B. Brady says [op. cit.) that there are 
specimens of this species which are amongst the very largest of recent 
arenaceous Foraminifera. 
Reophax findens (Parker). 
Lituola findens, Parker (in Dawson's paper) Canad. Nat. vol. v. 
N.S., p. 177, pi. 180 fig. 1 (1870). 
Reophax findens, H. B. Brady, Foram. of the Chall. Exp., p. 299, 
pi. xxxi. figs, 10-11 (1884). 
Habitat. — East of Inchkeith, not very common. The only other British 
examples are from the estuary of the Dee, N. Wales (J. D. Siddal). 
There appears to be no other authenticated British locality for this 
species. 
Ammodiscus gordialis (Jones and Parker). 
Trochamina squamata gordialis, Jones and Parker, Quart. Jour. 
Geol. Soc, vol. xvi. p. 304 (1860). 
Ammodiscus gordialis, H. B. Brady, op. cit, p. 333, pi. xxxviii. 
figs. 7-9. 
Habitat. — Aberlady Bay, rather rare, structure arenaceous, colour 
brownish ; the test consists of a tube coiled upon itself in an irregular 
manner, inclining to complanate. 
* There is some diversity of opinion as to whether the organisms here referred to 
R. nodulosa are foraminiferal ; it i therefore with some hesitation that they are 
included in the present list.
