Cartography. 



The area examined covers 20 square miles, and takes in the 

 eastern half of quarter-sheet 7 S.E., and the western portion of 

 quarter-sheet 2 S.W. There are neither dates nor compass points 

 on these sheets. 



The date of one edition of the quarter-sheet was probably 1863,. 

 but the dates of the other two editions could not be obtained. 

 Two different copies can be seen at the Melbourne Public Library, 

 and a third at the Geological Survey Department. One of the three 

 editions has the Silurian conglomerate south-west of Hanging 

 Valley (Plate XXXIL) wrongly coloured as Kainozoic. 



The dips and strikes of the palaeozoic rocks on the quarter-sheet 

 are inaccurate.
