Circospathis furcata, n. sp., × 400 Vertical section through the base of a radial spine, to show the central funicle. Fig. 8. Circogonia dodecacantha, n. sp., × 100 The central capsule with the elliptical nucleus (to the right) and the dark phæodium (to the left) are visible, in the upper part (to the left) the mouth of the shell, with six teeth. Fig. 9. Circogonia dodecacantha, n. sp., × 400 A fragment of the shell, exhibiting its peculiar structure (needles tangentially scattered in the cement of the porcellanous substance), and a circle of nine pores around the base of a broken spine. Fig. 10. Circospathis tetrodonta, n. sp., × 400 The mouth with four teeth, in profile view. . 1887 66 Radiolaria (Challenger) Plate 115
