Abstract

Topotypes of the Late Tertiary foraminiferal species described in the report of the Novara Expedition published in 1866 by Dr. Conrad Schwager were obtained from samples collected on the island of Car Nicobar in the Bay of Bengal. The present status of these species is listed. Topotypes matched with the figures and descriptions given by Schwager have been lodged in the Geology Department, Banaras Hindu University, and a second set of topotypes will be deposited at the British Museum (Natural History), London. Neotypes will later be designated for all of the valid species described and figured by Schwager in his Novara report of 1866, except Globigerina conglomerata Schwager and G. seminulina Schwager, neotypes for which have already been proposed by Banner and Blow (1960).
