Coracoscapula of Eryops Cope," *" which was taken from the 

 Enid division, the part probably corresponding to the Wel- 

 lington formation, as pointed out by Gould. T. Rupert Jones 

 had previously referred the species of crustacean found with 

 the bones at the McCann quarry provisionally to Estheriaf 

 minvta, abundant in the Triassic system. However, it is 

 only fair to say that the material was so poor that no positive 

 determination could be made. In the discussion of the 

 paleontology of the Red Beds, Gould gives a list of fossils 

 from Orlando from about the same part of the Enid beds.*^ 

 They areDiplocaulus magtt/icnrnvsCope, Diadectidce, Gen. Indt., 

 Pariotichus incisivus? Cope, labyrinthodont, Trimerorhachis . 

 This list was furnished by Doctor Williston as a preliminary 

 one. Concerning it he says: ' ' Diplocatdus is an amphibian. 

 The genus occurs in the Permian of Illinois and Texas, ac- 

 cording to Cope. The Diadectidse is a family of theromorph 

 or theriodont reptiles, known only from the Permian of 

 Texas. Panotichux iucn^ivus Cope, from the Permian of 

 Texas, belongs to a family closely allied to the Diadectidse. 

 Triih erorhachis is a genus of stegocephs, from the Permian of 

 Texas. 



"All together, you see that these fossils point unmistakably 

 to the Permian. ..." 



Case, in the same paper*^ gives a list and descriptions of 

 fossils occurring at the Orlando locality and makes the follow- 

 ing comment: "The collection is of especial interest as it 

 shows a close relationship, both in its forms and its manner 

 of fossilization, to the deposits of northern Texas. Still more 

 interesting is the discovery of forms having the same char- 

 acter of neural and haemal spines as are found in the forms 

 from the Carboniferous of Linton, Ohio, and in the Permian 

 deposits of Ireland and Bohemia. Two or three forms, as 

 Trimerorhnchix and Diploeaulus, are common to this region 

 and the deposits of Illinois, but the fauna is much more 

 closely related, as is to be expected, with that of the Texas 

 Permian. It is perhaps worthy of note that there is a notice-
