There are thus 36 species in the Aekeriuau 

 formation as against 257 in the Holly vSprmgs 

 sand and 111 in the Grenada fonnation. Of 

 these 36 species 13 ihi not occur in the rest of 

 the section and are thus pecidiar to the Acker- 

 man formation m this area; 16 range upward 

 through the Holly Sprmgs sand antl 7 extend 

 to the top of the Grenada formation. The 

 Ackerman flora shows no botanic characters 

 of collective interest apart from the remamder 

 of the flora, nor does it show any evidence that 

 physical conditions differed materially from 

 what they were in later Wilcox time. The 

 fossilifcrous localities are few and the only 

 important one, that at Hurleys, Miss., was 

 well up toward the head of the early Wilcox 

 embayment and removed from the littoral con- 

 ditions of sedimentation, as is shown by the 

 extensive development of siderite. The other 

 localities referred to this epoch of the Wilcox 

 arc Raglands Branch, Lafayette Comity; Lock- 

 • hart, Lauderdale County; Colemans MiU, Choc- 

 taw County; DeKalb-Hcrbert road, Kemper 

 Count)'; all in northeastern Mississippi.
