Conclusions : I. Portions of all the Faunae of all the primary divisions of geo- 

 logical time have been recognized on both the European and North American 

 continents . 



II. Parallels requiring general identifications of principal divisions of these 

 faunae may be detected. These are : the Coal-Measures ; the Permian; the Lara- 

 mie ; the Maestri chtiau ; the Eocene ; the Miocene. 



III. Exact identifications of restricted divisions may be made in a few instances 

 only ; such are the Turonian and the Niobrara ; the Suessonian and the Wasatch ; 

 the Equus beds and the Pliocene.
