SMITHSONIAN MISCELLANEOUS COLLECTIONS VOL. 1 52 
subareas have Foraminifera whereas the inner harbor and northwest 
gutter do not. The reducing conditions measured by Parker et al 
(1964) might contribute to the absence of Foraminifera in the inner 
harbor subarea, but studies from other areas with reducing conditions, 
for example Buzas ( 1965) , indicate that often there is an abundance of 
Foraminifera under such conditions. 
The Foraminifera are obviously not distributed at random but a 
more sophisticated classification than ‘have’ and ‘have not’ subareas is 
not warranted from the data of this study. If a more complex (sev- 
eral categories) multispecies distributional pattern can be defined geo- 
graphically, it exists on a scale for which the sampling of this study is 
inadequate. 
Although R. H. Parker et al (1964) recorded a large amount of 
data on several environmental variables in the Hadley Harbor Com- 
plex, the distribution of the Foraminifera is too heterogeneous and the 
foraminiferal samples too few to permit statistical analysis. The 
Hadley Harbor Complex does, however, serve as an illustration of an 
area where the distribution of the Foraminifera can be characterized 
as exhibiting spatial heterogeneity. 
CATALOG OF SPECIES WITH SELECTED SYNONOMIES 
Only a species list and synonomy is presented here. All the species 
recorded in the Hadley Harbor Complex have been adequately de- 
scribed and illustrated in studies made of adjacent areas. These 
studies are listed in the synonomy and the reader interested in taxo- 
nomic studies is referred to them. The overall fauna is typical of 
what one would expect to find in the shallow waters of New England.
