Adercotryma wrighti
Brönnimann and Whittaker, 1987
Figure 2.1-2.2

1987 Adercotryma wrighti Brönnimann and Whittaker: p. 27, figs 3B, 7A-J

Remarks:
Infaunal. This has commonly been included in Adercotryma glomeratum (Brady). The two are readily separated as A. wrighti has three chambers in the last whorl whereas A. glomeratum has four.

Ammoscalaria pseudospiralis (Williamson)
Figure 2.3

1858 Proteonina pseudospiralis Williamson: p. 2, pl. 1, figs 2, 3.

1947 Ammoscalaria pseudospiralis (Williamson); Höglund: p. 159-162, pl. 31, fig.1.

Remarks:
Infaunal. Recorded as Haplophragmium pseudospirale (Williamson) by Heron-Allen and Earland (1916) who noted its great variability of form. Adult individuals are large (length commonly in excess of 1 mm). Young forms have an incompletely developed uniserial section.

Bigenerina nodosaria d'Orbigny, 1826
Figure 2.4

1826 Bigenerina nodosaria d'Orbigny: p. 261, pl. 11, figs 9-12.

Remarks:
The wall has a calcareous cement. Only rare dead individuals.

Cribrostomoides jeffreysii (Williamson)
Figure 2.5

1858 Nonionina jeffreysii Williamson: p. 34-35, pl. 3, figs 72, 73.

1971 Cribrostomoides jeffreysii (Williamson); Murray: p. 23, pl. 4, figs 1-5.

Remarks:
Epifaunal. Considered by Sturrock and Murray (1981) to be epifaunal, attached but also able to move freely. Placed in Veleroninoides by Jones (1994). Recorded as Haplophragmium canariense (d'Orbigny) by Heron-Allen and Earland (1916).

Cuneata arctica (Brady)
Figure 2.6

1881a Reophax arctica Brady: p. 405, pl. 21, figs 2a, b.

1979 Cuneata arctica (Brady); Fursenko, in Fursenko, et al.: p. 21, pl. 3, figs 13, 14.

Remarks:
This is rare and was found only through ATA studies. In the seas off southern England, this species is abundant only on the inner shelf (Murray and Alve, 2000) where the waters are vertically mixed throughout the year.

Deuterammina rotaliformis (Heron-Allen and Earland)
Figure 2.7-2.8

1911 Trochammina rotaliformis J Wright ms: Heron-Allen and Earland, p. 309 (availability of name).

1983 Deuterammina (Deuterammina) rotaliformis (Heron-Allen and Earland); Brönnimann and Whittaker: p. 349, figs 1-8, 25.

Remarks:
Likely to be epifaunal from its morphology. Pre-1983 records of this species are considered to be unreliable due to the absence of a type illustration (Brönnimann and Whittaker, 1983).

Eggerella europea (Christiansen)
Figure 2.9

1958 Verneuilina europeum Christiansen: p. 66; new name for Verneuilina advena Cushman of Höglund, 1947, p. 185, pl. 13, fig. 11, text-fig. 169.

2000 Eggerella europeum (Christensen) (sic); Murray and Alve: p. 325, pl. 1, figs 15-17.

Remarks:
This is a tiny form which is easily overlooked and was found only through the ATA analyses. It is readily separated from Eggerelloides scaber not only on size but also because it has a more elongated tapered test.

Eggerelloides medius (Höglund)
Figure 2.10

1947 Verneuilina medius Höglund: p. 184-185, pl. 13, figs 7-10, pl. 30, fig. 21.

2000 Eggerelloides medius (Höglund); Murray and Alve: p. 325, pl.2, figs 16, 17.

Remarks:
Infaunal. This species differs from Eggerelloides scaber in having a much coarser and rougher wall texture, with somewhat overhanging proximal chamber margins, a less tapered test, and commonly a brownish wall colour. In southern UK waters, E. medius is confined to water depths >90 m where some mud is present in the sediment (Murray and Alve, 2000).

Eggerelloides scaber (Williamson)
Figure 2.11

1858 Bulimina scabra Williamson: p. 65, pl. 3, figs 136, 137 (labelled B. arenacea on plate caption).

1973 Eggerelloides scabrum (Williamson) (sic); Haynes: p. 44, pl. 2, figs 7, 8, pl. 19, figs 10, 11, text-fig. 8, nos 1-4.

Remarks:
Infaunal. See remarks on E. medius. It is likely that these two species have been grouped together in past studies of UK foraminifera and that is certainly so for southern England (Murray, 1970, 1979; see also Murray and Alve, 2000). Recorded by Heron-Allen and Earland (1916) as Verneuilina polystropha (Reuss).

Gaudryina rudis Wright, 1900
Figure 2.12-2.13

1900 Gaudryina rudis Wright: p. 53, pl. 2, fig. 1a, b.

Remarks:
Epifaunal. The wall has a calcareous cement. Gaudryina has a solid wall so Loeblich and Tappan (1989) erected the genus Connemarella for forms with the same morphology but with a canaliculate wall and named G. rudis as the type species. However, this generic name is rarely used in the literature.

Haplophragmoides bradyi (Robertson)
Figure 3.1-3.2

1887 Trochammina robertsoni Brady: p. 893, no type figure.

1891 Trochammina bradyi Robertson: p. 388; new name for Trochammina robertsoni Brady, 1887.

1971 Haplophragmoides bradyi (Robertson); Murray: p. 25, pl. 5, figs 1, 2.

Remarks:
Infaunal. This is a distinctive form having a deep brown colour and a shiny, very finely agglutinated, test wall.

Liebusella goesi Höglund, 1947
Figure 3.3

1947 Liebusella goesi Höglund: p. 194-198, pl. 14, figs 4-8, text-figs 177-179.

Remarks:
Infaunal.

Morulaeplecta bulbosa Höglund, 1947
Figure 3.4-3.5

1947 Morulaeplecta bulbosa Höglund: p. 165-167, pl. 12, fig. 2, text-figs 142a, b.

Remarks:
This form is rare and was found only through the ATA studies.

Portatrochammina murrayi Brönnimann and Zaninetti, 1984
Figure 3.6-3.7

1984 Portatrochammina murrayi Brönnimann and Zaninetti: p. 72, pl. 5, figs 7, 12-15.

Remarks:
This rare form was only through the ATA analyses. Previously reported from the Celtic Sea, Bristol Channel, and Western Approaches to the English Channel but common only at depths >80 m (Murray and Alve, 2000) where the waters show seasonal thermohaline stratification.

Recurvoides trochamminiformis Höglund, 1947
Figure 3.9-3.10

1947 Recurvoides trochamminiforme Höglund (sic): p. 149-150, pl. 11, figs 7, 8, pl. 30, fig. 23, text-fig. 120.

Remarks:
Infaunal. Distribution as for P. murrayi.

Reophax fusiformis (Williamson)
Figure 3.8

1858 Proteonina fusiformis Williamson: p. 1, pl. 1, fig. 1.

1884 Reophax fusiformis (Williamson); Brady: p. 290, pl. 30, figs 7-11.

Remarks:
Infaunal.

Siphotextularia flintii (Cushman)
Figure 3.11

1911 Textularia flintii Cushman: p. 21, text-figs 36a, b.

Remarks:
Very rare dead. The wall has a calcareous cement.

'Textularia sagittula Defrance group' of Murray (1971)
Figure 3.12-3.14

1824 Textularia sagittula Defrance: p. 177, pl. 13, figs 5, 5a.

1971 Textularia sagittula Defrance group of Murray: p. 31, figs. 1-9.

Remarks:
Although not recorded in life position in this study, it is known to attach itself aperture down to substrates such as shells and hydroids (e.g., Heron-Allen and Earland, 1916). Considered by Sturrock and Murray (1981) to be epifaunal, attached but also able to move freely. This is a broad grouping of textularians having a calcareous cemented wall. It includes Spiroplectammina wrightii (Silvestri 1923) as illustrated in Figures. 3.12-14.

Textularia tenuissima Earland, 1933
Figure 3.15-3.16

1933 Textularia tenuissima Earland: p. 95, pl. 3, figs 21-30.

Remarks:
Infaunal. See Höglund, (1947) for a lengthy discussion of this species.

Textularia truncata Höglund, 1947
Figure 3.17-3.18

1947 Textularia truncata Höglund: p. 175-176, pl. 12, figs 8, 9, text-figs 147-149.

Remarks:
Rare dead. The wall has a calcareous cement.
