ADDITIONAL NOTES. 



The preceding chapters were written and for the most part sent to Chri- 

 stiania to be translated into English and printed, when No. 216 vol. LIV. of 

 the Quart. Journ. of the Geological Society of London came out of press 

 (Novbr. 1898), containing two valuable contributions to the Geology of Franz 

 Josef Land: 



1. Dr. A. Koettlitz, 'Observations on the Geology of Franz Josef Land'. 



2. E. T. Newton and J. J. H. Teall, 'Additional Notes on Rocks and 

 Fossils from Franz Josef Land'. 



As to the purely geological remarks given by Dr. Koettlitz, the points 

 relating to Gape Flora are already taken into consideration by Prof. Nansen 

 in the sketch of the Geology of Gape Flora, with which he kindly introduced 

 my paper. 



Among the new contributions to the Jurassic Fauna and Stratigraphy in 

 the second paper by Mr. E. T. Newton, there are some data completing our 

 own results. 



1st. From the lowest horizon [Bajocian], NW. of Elmtvood, 23 33 ft. 

 above the sea, Newton figures (1. c. PI. XXIX. fig. 1) the right valve of an 

 "Avicula sp". The specimen shows exactly the outline of a true Pseudomonotis 

 (the anterior wing being broken) and must be considered as belonging to our 

 species Pseudomonotis Jacksoni. 



From the same locality, Newton mentions besides remains of Ostrea 

 (which genus I could not find in the material before me) Belemnite-fragments 

 of the Belemnites Panderi type. If these latter indeed originate from this 

 horizon and have not fallen from above, they may be considered as an en- 

 richment of the fauna of the Gape Flora Bajocian.
