 to those of the limbs in the other divisions is doubtful.)

Memoirs of the Geological Survey of the United Kingdom. — The 

 Cretaceous Hods of Britain. Vol, II. The Lower and Middle 

 Chalh of England. By A. J. Jukes-Browne, B.A., F.G.S. With 

 Contributions by William Hill, F.G.S. 8vo. Pages xiii and 

 568. With 93 Illustrations, including one Geological Map, two 

 Plates from photographs, and four from micrographs. E. Stan-

In the first volume of this series A. J. Jukes-Browne and W. Hill, 

 ■with others, described the Gault and Upper Groeusand of England. 

 This second volume, by the same authors, together with manj^ 

 contributors, deals with the Lower and Middle Chalk. The third 

 volume will include the description of the Upper Chalk, with 

 chajiters on the economics of the soil, stone, &c., on the water- 

 supply, and the physical features of chalk districts, also a complete 

 catalogue of the fossils found in all the different divisions of the 

 Chalk. The present volume begins M'ith a general and chrono- 

 logical account of the researches that led to the definition of the 

 several stratal divisions of the Chalk ; and in the sequel the zones 

 or horizons marked out by the occurrence of particular fossils are 

 carefully explained. This part of the book seems to have been 

 written before the valuable results of the researches by E.owe aud 

 Sherborn were published ; these and their subsequent work along 

 the cliii-sections of the Chalk will have greatly helped geologists in 

 the study of the strata and zones, and are largely utilized in the 

 chapters on the Middle Chalk. 

 The Lower Chalk (" Ceiionianian " in part) includes all the beds
