no. 1608. HORAMINIFERA FROM THE HAWAITANISLANDS—BAGG. 141 
LAGENA GLOBOSA (Montagu). 
Vermiculum globosum Monragcu, Test. Britain, 1803, p. 5238. 
This cosmopolitan species of to-day has a long geological record, 
dating possibly from the Carboniferous, but certainly from the 
Oolite. Found only at Station H. 4567. 
LAGENA HISPIDA Reuss. 
Lagena hispida REUSS, Zeitschr. deutsch. Geol. Gesell., X, 1858, p. 434. 
The test of Lagena hispida varies in shape, but always shows a his- 
pid surface, which is its distinguishing characteristic. Like the 
preceding, this species has a long geological history, dating from the 
Lias. In recent waters it is not limited in distribution or depth, but 
it is not abundant wherever found. Present at Station H. 4585. 
LAGENA LAVIS (Montagu). 
Vermiculum leve Montacu, Test. Britain, 1803, p. 524. 
One of the simplest unornamented unicellular hyaline Foraminif- 
era. On account of its variability in form it has been described 
under many names, a long lst of which is given in any complete 
synonymy of the species. It 1s unquestionably one of the earliest 
Foraminifera known, occurring in Upper Silurian deposits. Its 
distribution and bathymetric range are unlimited at the present time. 
Obtained only at Station H. 4585. 
LAGENA LAGENOIDES (Williamson). 
Entosolenia marginata lagenoides WILLIAMSON, Recent Foram. Gt. Brit- 
aul, WSS, jo Tal, fol, Th mks, BH, AH 
Test oval elongate, compressed and bordered by a decorated keel 
which surrounds the entire shell. Lagena formosa Schwager has a 
wider similarly striated margin but the distal portion is notched and 
wing-like. Found in comparatively shoal waters in the South Pa- 
cific (388 to 410 fathoms), and of rather wide geographical distribu- 
tion elsewhere and at greater depths. Most frequent in the Atlantic. 
Known in the Miocene of Sicily (Seguenza). Obtained from <AJ- 
batross Station H. 4566 only. 
LAGENA MARGINATA (Walker and Boys). 
Serpula marginata WALKER and Boys, Test. Min., 1784, p. 2, pl. 1. fig. 7. 
The above broadly oval, smooth-shelled Zagena is distinguished 
from other forms by its peripheral margin which is extended into a 
wide keel. Universally known in every ocean and at every depth,
