States that, previous to researches made by himself and others, no 

 Foraminifera had been recorded from the Carboniferous rocks of W. 

 Scotland. Gives a list of fresh species of Foraminifera from these rocks 

 identified by H. B. Brady. J. E. T.

and their distribution in the Silurian and Carboniferous Strata of 



the West of Scotland. Proc. Nat. Hist. Soc. Glasg. vol. ii. part 1, 



p. 16. 



States that these genera are now removed from the Cephalopoda, and 



placed among the JN'ucleobranchiate Gasteropoda. 14 species of Bellero- 



phon have been found in the rocks of W. Scotland (4 in the Girvan 



Silurians, and 10 in Carboniferous Limestone near Glasgow). Only one 



species of Porcellia (P. armata) has been found, near Glasgow. J. E. T.

The Vienna Sandstone yields few fossils. Nummulites found show 



that part of it belongs to the Eocene. There is now noted a large 



Inoceranius, 24 centims. long, from the Weinsch quarry, which will fix 



the age of another part ; the species is named /. Hauerl. E. B. T.

 brate Fossils, mainly from the Silurian System, pp. 65-179, pis. i.-ix., 

 xi., xii. and pi. xiii. figs. 2-4. The first part deals with fossils from 

 the Cincinnati Formation (Hudson River Group). The following new 

 species are described : — Lingula Covington ensis., Lingulella (Dignomia?) 

 Cincinnatiensis., Modiolopsis concentrica, M. Cincinnatiensis, SedguiicJcia? 

 divaricata, Cayieamya Miamiensis, C. scapTia^ Orthodesma recta, 0. cur- 

 vata^ Orthoceras Buseri, 0. Carleyi, 0. turbidum, GompJioceras eos, Bey- 

 7'ichia quadrilirata, and PliimuUtes (^Turrilepas) Jamesi. A number of 

 previously recognized forms are also described and figured. The genus 

 JScMzocrania is proposed for certain radiately-striated orbiculoid Bra- 

 chiopods ; and two new genera of Lamellibranchs are founded under 

 the names of Orthodesyna and Guneamya. The next part treats of 

 fossils from the Clinton Formation. Besides previously known forms, 

 the following new species are described — Rhinopora frondosa, Sticto- 

 pora magna, Clathropora Clintonensis,Phcenopora{Ptilodictya)eoopansa,
