REPORT ON THE FORAMINIFERA. 
93 
mamilligera, Cristellaria echincita, Cristellaria gemmata and Cristellaria 
costata ; Uvigerina schwageri, Ramulina globulifera, Truncatulina 
haidingerii and Truncatulina culter, Pulvinulina procera, Verneuilina 
triquetra, and Clavulina parisiensis. It was from this Station also that 
the very rare Cycloclypeus guembelianus was obtained. 
Station 175.— August 12, 1874. Lat. 19° 2' S., long. 177° 10' E. Depth, 1350 
fathoms ; bottom temperature, 1°’8 C. ; red clay. 
Contained all the common Foraminifera of a Globigerina ooze, the specimens, 
for the most part, worn and discoloured. There were in addition a few 
Radiolaria. 
Station 177.— August 18, 1874. Lat. 16° 45' S., long. 168° 5' E. New Hebrides. 
Depth, 125 fathoms. 
Dark-coloured sand and stones. Contained a few Globigerina, and pelagic 
Pulvinulince, together with a large number of shallow-water species, amongst 
which those of the genera Lagena, Nodosaria, Cristellaria, Textularia, and 
Bolivina are prominent. The following are some of the less common 
forms : — Carpenteria monticularis, Pulvinulina schreibersii, Biscorbina 
tahernacularis, Truncatulina margaritifera, Bulimina williamsoniana, 
Bolivina reticulata and Bolivina hantheniana. 
Station 179.— August 21, 1874. Lat. 15° 58' S., long. 160° 48' E. Depth, 2325 
fathoms ; red clay. 
A fine mud, leaving scarcely any residue after washing. The Foraminifera are 
chiefly those of a Globigerina ooze, with the addition of a considerable 
variety of Lagena, and a very few specimens of the smaller arenaceous 
forms. Ehrenbergina hystrix occurs in this material, and a single somewhat 
doubtful specimen of Pulvinulina favus was met with. 
Station 185. — August 31, 1874. Lat. 11° 35' S., long. 144° 3' E. Off Raine 
Island, Torres Strait. Depth, 155 fathoms; sand. 
In respect of Rhizopoda, this is probably the richest dredging made during 
the whole Challenger expedition, the list from the single locality having 
just about the same number of species as the entire British foraminiferal 
fauna, that is to say, nearly two hundred in all. Amongst the many very 
rare forms are the following : — Lagena spiralis, Lagena hertwigii, and Lagena 
schulzeana ; Cristellaria gemmata and Cristellaria tricarinella ; Sagrincc 
limbata, Pulvinulina procera and Pulvinulina schreibersii; Truncatidinci 
pracincta, Rupertia crassitesta, Textularia crispata, Textularia folium, and
