Psammosphera fusca, H. B. Brady, Foram. of the Chall. Exp., p. 
249, pl. xviii. figs. 1-8 (1884). 
Habitat.—EKast 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.

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 Jf. 
SCOYPLUTUS. 
Reophax nodulosa (%) H. B. Brady. | 
Reophax nodulosa, Brady,* Quart. Jour, Micr. Sci., vol. xix. 
N.S.) p22, pl. iv., figs. 7, 8 (1879) ; Brady, Foram. Chall. 
Exped., p 394, pl. XXil, 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. ci.) that there are. 
specimens of this species which are amongst the very largest. of recent 
arenaceous Foraminifera. 
Reophaa findens (Parker). 
Iituola findens, Parker (im Dawson's paper) Canad. Nat. vol. v.

Habitat.—East of Inchkeith, not verycommon. ‘The only other British

Trochamina squamata gordialis, Jones and Parker, Qnethe Je our.

figs. 7-9.

brownish ; the test consists of a tube coiled upon itself in an pie 
manner, inclining to complanate. | 
* There is some diversity of opinion as to whether the organisms here. referred 
R. nodulosa are foraminiferal; it i Uilere sore with some Aeon that they: are
