remarkably uniform both in number and position. They are not 
present in all of the specimens, and are entirely wanting in the 
Biloculine form. The earlier chambers, as shown in fig. 10, are 
elongate, much resembling M. Rupertiana in contour. Elongate 
specimens of the Biloculine form as represented by fig. 9 are very 
common. Probably this is an arrested form which does not develop 
the final enclosing chambers. 
Of the two forms, the Biloculine is the more numerous. The 
species is abundant at several Stations in both Areas.

This is an edentate form, although it is not so described by Brady 
or Egger. Its affinity with both M. Burrandii and M. Rupertiana 
is shown by the passage form fig. 11. Brady records it from two 
localities only, Papua, and off Calpentyn, Ceylon. Egger found it 
at three ‘ Gazelle * Stations, Mauritius, New Amsterdam, and West 
Australia. 
In the Malay Archipelago its distribution is co-extensive with 
that of M. Burrandii , and it is just as abundant.

The carinate variety is not represented in this collection by any- 
thing nearer than the smooth passage form fig. 11, nor is there the 
variation of aperture figured by Brady. 
The ‘ Challenger ’ specimens are from the islands off the south 
shores of Papua, west of Torres Strait ; but Brady names a few other 
localities from which it has been procured. 
It occurs at several Stations in both Areas, but only in very small 
numbers.
