REPORT OF THE PaL.EONTOLOGIOAL BRANCH. 



To the Council of tlie Otlavnl Field- N'aluralisf s _Cluh : 



I was unable to attend last summer's Club excursions, but during 

 the autumn I paid some attention to a rich outcrop covering the

 County of Carleton. In 1878 Mr. H. 0. Wood, P.L.S., pointed out 

 this outcrop to Mr. G. C. Heron, C.E., and myself, and T trust that 

 some enterprising member of this club will visit the locality and woi'k 

 up the exposures tlioroughly. The following species, together with, 

 many others yet undetermined, are now in my cabinet : 



1. Stromatocerium rugosum.
