Subgenus 2. Trypanosphærium, Haeckel.
Definition.—Only part of the shell-pores prolonged into coronated tubules.
3. Trypanosphæra coronata, n. sp. (Pl. [5], fig. 3).
Shell regular spherical, with irregular roundish pores of very different sizes. On the half meridian four to six large and twelve to sixteen very small pores. About half of the large pores prolonged into short cylindrical tubuli, the outer mouth of each being armed with an elegant coronal of ten to twenty thin irregular teeth.

Habitat.—North Pacific, Station 241, depth 2300 fathoms.
4. Trypanosphæra terebrata, n. sp.
Shell irregular roundish, with unequal, small, roundish pores. Sixteen to twenty pores on the half meridian. Six to eight larger pores are prolonged into curved cylindrical tubuli, about as long as the shell radius, with a coronal of ten to twelve strong conical straight teeth on the distal end.
Dimensions.—Diameter of the shell 0.15, of the pores 0.001 to 0.003; length of the tubuli 0.08, breadth 0.02.
