present climate in East Finmark; but the mya-banks in Små- 

 lenene were deposited during the first rise of the land here, 

 the arca-clay at Kristiania, on the contrary, during the last 

 part of the sinking-period here. 



Now as the climate at Kristiania and in Smålenene at the 

 same time must have been nearly the same during the period 

 of the rise of the land, the following conclusions may be drawn 

 from the above-mentioned relations between the shell-depositions 

 of the Kristiania Valley and in Smålenene: 



The upper mya-banks of Smålenene were deposited du- 

 ring the heginning of the uplift here at the time when the 

 land at Kristiania was still sinking {the arca-clay). 



The lower mya-banks of Smålenene (25—40%) ^nust 

 have been deposited about contemporaneously with the up- 

 permost mya-banks at Kristiania {0 — 15 %o); myabanks of a 

 percentage of uplift of about 15 — 40 %o {and corresponding 

 cardium clay) at Kristiania must have been deposited con- 

 temporaneously with shell-banks of Smålenene of percentage 

 of uplift of from 40 to 50 or 60 °/oo. (confr. the table on p. 299, 

 showing the composition of the various corresponding faunas in 

 Smålenene and at Kristiania). 



Shell-banks at levels corresponding with the same percentage 

 of total uplift are thus not contemporaneous in the southern and 

 northern parts of the Kristiania region; also the isoanabases 

 indicating the upper marine boundary are not synchronic, but 

 the rise has begun earlier in the southern, peripheric parts 

 of the region once covered with the icesheet, and has also at 

 all times been more advanced in these peripheric parts, than 

 in the central parts of the region, at least during the first 

 half of the uplift.
