NOTES AND EXHIBITS. 197 



Dr. Cox desired to record the distribution of Leucosia splendida, 

 described in Mr. Haswell's paper page 60, Proc. Linn. Soc. N.S. 

 W., Jan. 1879, which had recently been found in great numbers 

 up the Tweed River, their habitat being damp leaves and sand 

 just above water mark. 



Mr. Brazier exhibited a rare Helix from Travertine in Kent's 

 Group, forwarded by Mr. T. Stephens for identification. It is 

 allied to S. Aphrodite from the Solomon Islands belonging to the 

 group Corasia, which is common in the Phillipine and Solomon 

 Islands. The occurrence therefore of this form in the Travertine 

 of the Kent's Group, indicates a very much warmer and indeed 

 tropical climate as prevailing far to the southward during the 

 time this Travertine was deposited. 



Mr. Palmer exhibited photographs of Blacks from the Lachlan, 

 Edwards, Bogan, Murray, and other districts.
