Abstract
    FIFTY-THREE species of benthic and planktonic Foraminifera are reported from the west coast of New Zealand from RRS Discovery II Station 939 at a depth of 87 m; 28 of these are illustrated. This study of the Foraminiferal fauna of the shelf off the west coast of New Zealand and exam­ination of earlier New Zealand collections deposited in the British Museum (Natural History) has enabled substantial clarification of the systematic positions of the species concerned. Numerous nomenclatural changes and misidentifications are discussed.
