This paper might be taken as an addition to the work pub- 

 lished by one or other of us in the Records of the Austrahan 

 Museum, Vol. vi., Pt. 4, or in the Proceedings of the Linnean 

 Society of New South Wales, 1904, p. 8 10. 



The recent foraminiferal sands examined have been obtained 

 from dredgings made by Mr. C. Hedley, F.L.S., of the Australian 

 Museum. The fossil material has kindly been supplied by Miss 

 Mary Lodder, Launceston Museum, Tasmania. 



The materials recorded in this and our previous papers having 

 been obtained from localities on and about the Australian coasts 

 far removed from one another, have enabled us to make deduc- 

 tions regarding the distribution of Foraminifera in Australian 

 waters, and also in connection with the conditions of climate and 

 deposition at the time of the laying down of the Table Cape 

 Beds.
