The commonest species in the material is Polystomella macella, 
but the examples exhibit feeble development which may have 
been caused by unfavourable conditions. The list is not in any 
way distinctive, the occurrences being of species which have a 
wide distribution, but has perhaps a closer affinity to the Older 
rather than the Newer Tertiaries. Of the ten species of Forami- 
nifera observed from the Dry Creek Bore (Older Pliocene), only 
two are represented in the above lists. The material was, how- 
ever, widely different in each case, that from Dry Creek being 
somewhat coarse quartzose sand, whilst that now reported upon 
was fine and calcareous.— W.H. 
The paucity of numbers of species may be accounted for by the 
very small quantity (a thimbleful) of material submitted for 
examination.
