Material examined. Korea, Yellow Sea , station 30905 (35°51 ʹ 3.89 ʺ N, 125°24 ʹ 32.39 ʺ E), April 2015, collected by Sangjin Kim. NIBR ID: NIBRPR0000107233 GoogleMaps .

Diagnosis. Test subconical, slightly tapering toward initial end, trochospiral in early stage, and later triserial. Wall finely agglutinated. Chambers inflated, sutures dis- tinguishable. Aperture a low slit bordered by a narrow lip.

Remarks. The cylindrical outline and the chamber arrangement are trochospiral in the initial part and triserial in the later part. The aperture on the internal margin of last chamber is the typical feature of this species. There are nine extant species in the genus Eggerella internationally, and two species are reported in Korea: E. australis Collins, 1958 , and E. bradyi (Cushman, 1911) .
