Nodosaria (Dentalina) obliqua, Brady, 1884, Chall. Rep. vol. p. 513, pi. lxiv. figs. 20-22. Found in Sample No. 1, very rare. 177. NODOSAEIA E APH ANUS (Linn.). Nodosaria raphanus, Brady, 1884, Chall. Eep. vol. ix. p. 512, pi. lxiv. figs. 6-10. Found in Sample No. 1, very rare ; No. 5, rare. 178. NODOSAEIA (DENTALINA) ADOLPHINA (d'Orb.).

It is interesting to note that this species was also met with by Dr. Schwager in the Pliocene deposits of Kar Nicobar.
