 Recognizes tbree Devonian divisions in Haute-Garonne. Lower : 

 Limestones and calcareous schists with Phacops (rare) and Encrinital 

 fragments. Middle : Amygdaloid calcareous schists passing to red or 

 green marble, with small Goniatites in abundance (especially G. retror^ 

 sus), sometimes associated with Cli/menice, Encrinite stems, and Ortho- 

 ceras. Upper : Bluish schist shot with purple, red, and green, often 

 slaty, and whitish grits passing to quartzite ; apparently unfossiliferous.

 Chiefly an account of Seii. Yidal's work (see Geological Record for 

 1874, p. 104), which agrees with and confirms M. Leymerie's views 

 with regard to the Catalan region. He considers the lacustrine lime- 

 stone of Segura in Central Spain as Garumnian. G. A. L.

This little Pyrenean mountain group near St. Beat (Haute-Garonne) 



is divided into three regions — the disturbed area (Cambrian and 



granitic), the area of repose (Silurian and Devonian), and the scarped 



area (Jurassic and Cretaceous). G. A. L.

Parallels the lowest Scandinavian fossiliferous rocks with the Long- 



raynd Rocks. The Swedish Cambrians indicate deeper water than the 



]Mtish, although thinner. The lowest Russian Cambrians are older 



than the Tremadoc beds. W. H. D.

Graptolites range from the Olenus Schists upwards to the Upper 



Graptolitic Schists ; they are not known from the Ceratopyge Limestone 



or the Brachiopod Schists. The divisions in which each genus occurs 



are shown by a table. W. H. D.
