Dr Penard has examined and reported upon the Rhizopods and Heliozoa collected in Loch Ness at depths exceeding 250 feet. No littoral samples were sent to him, as his object was to investigate the sarcodine fauna peculiar to deep lakes. The majority of the species found in the deep collections were recognised as belonging to the fauna of the littoral region, or of the adjacent moors, only some half a dozen species or varieties being regarded as peculiar to the abyssal region.

In order to complete the list of the Sarcodina of Loch Ness, in so far as this can be done from the observations made by the Lake Survey, I now add the names of several species which were not detected in any of the collections sent to Dr Penard. Nearly all are common bog species.
