Victorian Fossils, Fart XXIV. 13: 



lies 20 miles to the N.W. The probable age of the Redruth iron- 

 stone Avas, in my original description, put down as Miocene, but 

 it is possible that it may be of later age. This can only be proved 

 in conjunction with more precise field evidence than we have at 

 present. 



Occurrence. — In an ironstone bed, three feet from the surface^ 

 at Carapook, N.W. of Casterton. Presented by Mr. James S.. 

 Macpherson. 



Age. — Probably Pleistocene. 



Previous records of Fossil remains of Emtdura macquariae. — 



R. Lydekker has recorded^ two fragmentary specimens of the 

 above species from the collection at the British Museum (Natural. 

 History), London. One of these is " An imperfect eighth marginal 

 bone of the right side, belonging either to this or an allied species. "^ 

 Its locality is doubtful, but " apparently from the Pleistocene cave- 

 deposits of New South Wales. 



The other is " An imperfect right tenth marginal, probably 

 referable to the same species as the preceding; from the Pleistocene- 

 cave-deposits of the Wellington Valley, New South Wales. This,, 

 specimen appears to include part of the eighth costal."
