 Correlates the beds from which the fossils were taken with a portion 

 of the Cape Otway series, Victoria. Enumerates the fossils observed 

 by him, amongst them the following new species are described — viz. 

 Terebra simplex, Typhis M'-Coyi^ Fusus Eobbsii, F. gracillimus^ Natica 

 Winshi, N. polita, Cyprcea Archeri, Triton Ahboti, Crassatella aphrodina, 

 0. oblonga, Voluta Weldii, Lyonsia Agnewi, Soleciirtus Legrandi, Venus

The Appendix treats of those recent and fossil shells not mentioned 



in Ed. 2. It contains, therefore, descriptions of all genera founded 



since 1866. It is separately paged, and is illustrated by 27 woodcuts.
