COIS'CLUSION, 



With the exception of a few fragmentary remains of plants, the 

 whole of the fossils collected by Mr. Richardson are from the lower part 

 of the formation, or, to speak more accurately, from Divisions A to D 

 (inclusive) of the Comox area, and from Divisions A and B of the 

 Nanaimo Coal-field and its outlier in the Cowitcheu district. The 

 following table has been constructed to show the range of each 

 species or well-marked variety in these lower and subordinate 

 divisions of this part of the Vancouver Cretaceous, and in the foiu' 

 larger groups into Avhich the entire series of the Cretaceous rocks of 

 California has been divided by Mr. Gabb. The list in the centre 

 contains the names of ninety-four species, seventeen of which are 

 new to science, and tive named varieties : six species out of the hundred 

 mentioned on page 94 being represented by specimens which are too 

 imperfect to be identified with a reasonable degree of probability.
