lines in rclation lo the present, sea-level during the time of the 

 deposilion ol' the older yoldiaclay; inaximum of submergence in 

 Vendsyssel; cliniate like that of the Kara-Sea, 



ii) The diagram on p. 330 shows the sitnation at the time 

 of deepest suhmergence in Smålenene (uppermost mya-banks 

 here); climate like that of Finmark. 



fil) TJKi (iingram on p. 331 shows tlie sitnation at the time 

 of deepest sul)mergence at Kristiania; (uppermost mya-banks 

 here; lower mya-fauna Smålenene; lowest saxieava-banks Aren- 

 dal, Kristiansand, Uddevalla, youngest zirphæa-strala Vend- 

 syssel); climate milder boreo-arctic. 



IV) The diagram on p. 332 shows the situation at the 

 time of the maximum of nplift in Vendsyssel; fresh water allu- 

 vium in Vendyssel, oldest cardium clay al Kristiania, lowest 

 mya-banks Smålenene; climate boreal. 



Pp. 328 — 352. Shell-occurrences, Corresponding to the Mya- 

 banks, along the South and West Coasts of Norway. 



Pp. 333 — 334 describe an occurrence of myabanks in 

 Jarlsberg, at Gulli in the parish of Kodal, 120 m. above the 

 sea; and p. 335 the shell-bank at Kordalen by the lake Toke- 

 vand, not far from Kragerø. 



On pp. 335 — 341 a series of shell-occurrences are described 

 from IIk! environs of Arendal list of fossils, pp. 336, 337, 339, 

 and on |)p. 341 — 344 the shell-clay from Kuholmcn brickfields 

 at KriHikmsand (list of fossils, pp. 341, 342). All these oc('ur- 

 rcnces recall by Iheir fauna the shell-banks at Uddevalla. They 

 are situated only a few metres above sea-level, and thus prove 

 (in accordance with the occurrences at Uddevalla and in ^Vnd- 

 syssel) that the land along the south coast in the peripheric 

 part of the once ice-covered area has been uplifted earlier than 

 the central parts of lliat area. 



Pp. 350 — 352. The very few occurrences, corresponding 

 with the mya-banks, from the west coast between Kristiansand 

 and Kristiansnnd are mentioned on p. 351 ; most of them åre
