Rather scarce. Remarks.—The subspecies subcarinata is closelj' related to mes- sxnae and transitional forms are difficult to assign. Most of the tests however can be classified without difficulty. As a rule, subcarinata is more compressed, coarser ornamented and stronger evolute than the non-carinate central type. In addition the liplike projection is better developed in messinae than in subcarinata
