damascened structure. Magnetite grains fairly large, pierced 

 by apatite needles. 



No rocks occurring in situ similar to these have hitherto 

 been recorded from the Nelson District. It is hoped that 

 when the geology of the province is studied with the aid 

 of petrographical investigations these descriptions will be of 

 some value in determining the age of some of the igneous 

 rocks. 



Akt. XXXVIII. — Second S2ip2)leinent to the " Materials for 

 a Bibliography of the Dinornithidae." 



By A. Hamilton. 



[Read before the Otago Institute, 3rd December, 1903.] 



Ten years ago I presented to this Institute the first portion of 

 the working-list of papers on the moa, and the subsequent 

 year a small first supplement of items which had been acci- 

 dentally omitted, for several of which I was indebted to the 

 kindness of friends. This evening I submit another supple- 

 mentary list, bringing the material for the bibliography up to 

 date. 



As in the previous lists, some papers are included which 

 treat of the smaller extinct birds, the history of which is 

 bound up with that of their giant relatives, the moas.
