This scientific report by Ernst Haeckel describes radiolarians—minute marine protozoa with intricate mineral skeletons—collected during the HMS Challenger expedition. The first part treats the Porulosa, including Spumellaria and Acantharia, with detailed taxonomy and morphology. It is valuable for readers interested in nineteenth-century marine biology and the diversity of microscopic ocean life.
