and the term " Cellular" is also perhaps less objectionable than 

 the term Concretionary. 



In the Section at p, 36, the " Upper yellow limestone/^ a, a, 

 ought to have been represented conformable to the beds beneath. 



Several errors have, I fear, crept into the nomenclature in the 

 Synoptical Table. I have corrected some of these in the remarks. 

 The specific names of the following species require either cor- 

 rection or confirmation, viz. Spirifer undulatus, Gervillia antiqua, 

 Myacites eleganSy Myoconcha modioliformis. The last-mentioned 

 species will also probably require to be removed from the genus 

 Myoconcha. 



On a future occasion I hope to make a few remarks on the 

 remaining portion of the fauna of the Permian System.
