 In its fully developed f6rm this species -is characteristic of tropical shallow waters.
 It has been recorded from the Culebra formation of the Panama Canal Zone in a somewhat different form from the recent species of the Indo-Pacific. This same form is.apparently present in the Florida wells, specimens very similar having been found in the Ponce de Leon Well at St. Augustine from 88 feet, and 68o feet in the well at Fort Myers.

 To this species have been assigned most forms of Polys tomella which have a rounded periphery and short retral processes. In the American Miocene it is known from numerous states of the Coastal Plain, from the Panama Canal Zone, and from Santo Domingo.
 The only well record is that from 41-56 feet in the well of the Okeechobee Ice and Electric Company at Okeechobee.

 Polystonclla sp. ?
 At 88o feet in the City Well at Fort Myers, Lee County, there occur numerous specimens of Polystoniella which are almost all casts and not at all well preserved. These, for the most part, have rather short retral processes but have a large number of chambers. Attention is called to them for possible later comparisons with other localities.
