The recent extensive use of Foraminifera in solving problems of stratigraphic geology and the recognition of their value as guide fossils in petro-leum geology has greatly stimulated interest in the biological problems of these marine rhizopods, consequently many investigators are now contrib-uting to our knowledge of various features of these organisms. Recent contributions include studies of the cytological behavior of the nuclei in reproduction, the rate of reproduction, the life span, those factors which. limit their geographic and bathymetric distribution in the sea and the in-terpretation of the stratigraphic distribution of geological populations on the floor of present oceans from core-samples of sediments. The conclusions set forth in this paper are the result of one phase of the cooperative study of the Foraminifera planned by Dr. T. Wayland Vaughan and continued under the direction of Dr. H. U. Sverdrup at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at La Jolla.
