Genus Nodosarina. 
Several of the Nodosarine forms are well represented in the northern seas; but the 
completion of this group of hyaline, straight, or more or less bent and coiled, uniserial 
shells, flat, bulbous, cylindrical, or tapering, with simple septal apertures surrounded by 
radiating fissures, such as are comprised in our great genus Nodosarina (with but one true 
species), must be sought for in other seas. The larger Nodosarice and Cristellariae are 
wanting here, as well as the Flabellince and Frondicularice, the Lingulince also, and a 
host of variable Dentalince , Vaginulince , and Marginulinoe. 
Nodosaria * Faphanus , Linne, sp. Plate XVI. fig. 1 (North Atlantic). 
A dwarf sulcate specimen with the septal lines hidden ; ridges strong, oblique, and 
inosculating to some extent. These are not unusual features in similar but larger spe- 
cimens from the Mediterranean and elsewhere, occurring at from the shore-line to 
100 fathoms. 
Our specimen is from 78 fathoms, lat. 51° 59', long. 11°, North Atlantic, to the north 
of Newfoundland Bank. 
Nodosaria scalaris, Batsch. Plate XVI. figs. 2 a, 2 b, 2 c (North Atlantic). 
A pretty, common form, neatly striated, subcylindrical, with more or less elongate 
neck or stolon-tube. This is one of the varieties found by Soldani near Sienna 
(Testaceogr. vol. i. part 2, pi. 95, figs, b-m), and named N. longicauda by D’Orbigny 
(Ann. des Sciences Nat. vol. vii. p. 254, no. 28f. (See also page 353.) 
Our figured specimens are from the North Atlantic; rare and small at 78, 90, 200, 
222, and 415 fathoms (see Table V.). We have otherwise collected it principally from 
muds from about 100 fathoms in the northern seas. 
Nodosaria ( Glandulina ) laevigata , D’Orbigny. Plate XIII. fig. 1 (Arctic). 
This is a smooth form, and rather slender compared with that figured by D’Orbigny 
* For the relationship of species and varieties in the genus Nodosarina, of which Nodosaria represents a sub- 
group, see the list at page 336. 
t The priority of the name given by Batsch has been determined since this paper was read : see Arm. Nat. 
Hist. March 1865, p. 225.
