spire. These forms are widely distributed in existing oceans and

subsquamosa. Ranges in depth from 30 to 3,000 fathoms. Found at 
Stations D. 4025, H. 4430, H. 4555, H. 4566, H. 4568, H. 4571, H. 
4585, and H. 4696, and in the Albatross dredging much more abun-

While frequently occurring with the preceding, this species is best

monly than the preceding at Stations D. 4025, H. 4430, H. 4440,
