Abstract
IN a fine memoir1 on Foraminifera from the Kerimba Archipelago, Portuguese East Africa, Messrs. Edward Heron-Allen and Arthur Earland deal with no fewer than 470 species and varieties, of which thirty-two are new to science. There is a striking resemblance between the general facies of the gatherings at Kerimba and that of the late Mr. F W. Millett's collection from the Malay Archipelago. The leading zoological feature is perhaps the great abundance of Miliolidse, of which 122 species are reported, seventy-seven in the single genus Miliolina.
