394 FORAMINIFERA OF THE CRAG, ETC. 



E. Berry, of Bordighera. For the other Italian records we have laid under contribution the 

 list published by Prof. F. Sacco (' II Bacino Terziario e Quaternario del Piemonte,' 1S89, 

 pp. 24 — 33) for the Plaisanciau Beds of Piedmont ; but, as that list records " occurrences " 

 merely, we are unable to give any account of the "size" and "frequency" of the specimens. 

 The Plaisanciau Beds of Trinite-Victor are ably dealt with by Dr. de Amicis (" I foramiuiferi 

 del Pliocene Inf. di Trinite-Victor," 'Boll. Soc. Gaol. Ital.,' vol. xii, 1893, fasc. 3, pp. 293 et 

 seq.), and the list given is taken from that work. In his Table Dr. de Amicis records always 

 the number of specimens ; and in the text, for some of the species, if not for all, the size of the 

 specimens is recorded in millimetres. This rigidly exact method of noting size has unfortunately not 

 been generally adopted, and we have excused ourselves the labour of picking out the information 

 from the text for the purposes of this Table, because general symbols are used in the rest of the 

 columns. 



The Astian list is based principally upon an examination of some material in our own collections 

 from Monte Pellegrino, supplemented by the records of a few species given by Prof. Sacco in the 

 work already referred to. Prof. Sacco's list, however, is meagre, fourteen species only being therein 

 recorded. 



In some few cases our Table does not contain a note of the occurrence of some Italian Pliocene 

 species, which are referred to in the notes on " Occurrences " given in the text of the Monograph. 

 Such omissions from the Table are due to the fact that the exact horizon in those cases is not known 

 to us. 



Spanish Pliocene. — The list of species met with in the Pliocene Beds of Garrucha, South 

 Spain, is prepared from the list appended to the paper on the fauna of that locality by Dr. Franz 

 Schrodt (' Zeitschr. d. D. Geol. Ges.,' vol. slii, 1890, pp. 386 et seq.).
