14. — Neio Fossils from the Bokkeveld Beds. — By F. E. C. Keed, 

 M.A., F.G.S. 



(Plates XLVII., XLVIII.) 



Since the publication in the Annals of the author's previous articles 

 on the Brachiopoda and MoUusca of the Bokkeveld Beds/'' a con- 

 siderable amount of work has been done which bears either directly 

 or indirectly upon these beds and their fossils. A review of our 

 present knowledge of the whole fauna and of its relations to that of 

 other Devonian areas has recently been given elsewhere by the 

 author, t and in that article most of the important papers of recent 

 date have been mentioned, so that it is unnecessary here to do more 

 than incidentally refer to such of them as concern the additional 

 species described in the following pages. The conclusions at which 

 the author then arrived I with regard to the characters and relations 

 of the fauna of the Bokkeveld Beds do not require any modification 

 in consequence of the new material since examined. 



The complete list of the fossils in the collection now submitted to 

 me for identification is as follows : — 



Holopea haini Sharpe Zwartberg Pass. 



Loxonema sp \ Uniondale.
