Twenty-six species are descri))e(l aiul nearly 

 all are elaborately figured, tbe plates being 

 mostly reproductions of photographs. One 

 new species, Cyathoccnis poiioricniitis, and 

 one new variety, AKtramjia solitaria? var. por-

The copper mines of Santa Clara 



province, Cuba. 



Eng. and MiniiKj.hiinii.. Lxxii, No. 25, Dec. 

 21, 1901, pp. S14-S1(). 

 Contains a brief account of the topographic 

 and geologic features of the province of Santa

Notes on Cuban fossil mammals. 



Scknce (new series), xv. No. 369, Jan. 24, 

 1902, pp. 148-149. 

 A brief resume of our knowledge of so- 

 called fi issil mammals said to have been found 

 in Ciiba. It attempts to show that the re- 

 mains of Hippopotamus, Equus.and Mastodon 

 were not indigenous to the island, and the 

 original locality of the bones of Megaloenus 

 is not positively known. They may not be 

 Cuban. 



Earliest Tertiary coral reefs in the 



Antilles and United States. 



Science (new series), xv, No. 378, Mar. 



28, 1902, pp. .506-.507. 

 This is aTi abstract of a i>aper read before 

 the Geological Society of Washington, 

 Feb. 26, 1902. 

 Outlines the first appearance of coral reefs 

 in the Tertiary formations of the regions in- 

 dicated in the title and their development in 

 subsequent geologic time.

Some recent changes in the no- 

 menclature of corals. 



Proc. Biol. Soc. M'ash., xv, Marcli 22. 1902, 

 pp. 53-58. 

 A discussion of changes in the nomencla- 

 ture of Mr. Vaughan's The stony corals of the 

 Porto Rican waters, proposed by Professor 

 Verrill. Professor Verrill favors the follow- 

 ing changes: 



1. Acropora Oken instead of Impora Studer. 



2. MaeandraO^en instead of J'latygyra'EhT., 

 Manicina Ehr. and Diploria M. Edw. 



3. Maeandra cerebrum Ell. & Sol. instead of 

 Maeandra viridis (Le Sueur). 



4. Orbicella anmdaris (Ell.* Sol.) instead of 

 O. acropora (Linn.). 



VAUGHAN, T. Waylanp— Continued. 



5. Poritespoli/moriiha Liwk instead of J'ori- 

 (cs poriles Pallas. Mr. Vaughan agrees with 

 Professor Verrill in instances 1. 2, and 4, but 

 in in.stances 3 and 5 he adheres to the nomen- 

 clature used in liis report (in the Porto Iticaii 

 I'orals.

 In this paper 3 new species — U'hittlrseya 

 desiderata White, iVIiiltlescyabrerifiih'a White, 

 and ]Vliitt/e>'eya dairsnniana White — are de- 

 scribed and illustrated, and their .source and 

 age discussed. The conclusion reached as to 

 the age of the beds is that they are referable 

 to the upper part of the Pottsville. The rela- 

 tions and systematic position of the species 

 are also con.sidered. They are found to ])e 

 more closely allied to the group of broader 

 proportions, in general characteristic of the 

 Upper Pottsville, than to the linear group 

 which prevails in the lower portions of the 

 Pottsville of the Appalachian province. Sys- 

 tematically they are regarded by the author 

 as referable to the Ginkgoales, the Whittle- 

 sey:e, in the judgment of the writer, being the 

 oldest representatives of the Ginkgoales stock 

 yet di.scovered.
