 limestone belonging to the Trachyceras Aonoides zone.

S. Tyrol.] Zeitschr. deutsch. ostein. Alpenver. Bd. vi. Heft 1. 

 Describes the geological structure of the country round Ampezzo, 

 Buchenstein, Groden, and Enneberg. Shows that many of the so- 

 called Dolomites are not dolomitic at all, but are formed of true lime- 

 stone. G. A. L.

Concludes from the facts observed : — 1. That the Nummulites 



planata beds occur in the Ypresian sand ; 2. That the Paniselian is 



quite distinct from the Ypresian ; 3. That the typical Paniselian fauna 



leads one to consider it the equivalent of part of the Paris Calcaire 



Grossier ; 4. That the Paniselian has probably been covered by more

 Gives an account of these rocks in Sweden, their microscopical ap-

 some important localities. The author thinks the following order
