Localities of the Tertiary Glaciers.] Bull. Soc. Geol. France,^ ser. 



t. iii. pp. 012, 613. 



The localities arc near Turin in the Pliocene Glacial deposits first 



described by Prof. Gastaldi in 1861 ; their exact position is fully given.

 near Geneva.] Bull. Soc. Geol. France, 3 ser. t. iv. pp. 180-183. 



Notes that a glacier alone can have carried the Yalais rocks, of which 

 fragments are now found in the Drift of the Rhone valley, across the 

 Lake of Geneva. This Drift forms a transition between the Tertiary 

 and Quaternary deposits. G. A. L.

Notes a boulder-drift seldom seen on the surface, but met with in 

 well-sinking and in other works, which he considers Miocene, and 

 intercalated between the Molasse deposits and the lignitiferous lacus- 

 trine clays of the Bresse. G. A. L.

Brings forward additional evidence proving the existence of such 

 glaciers in the Bresse. In a table of equivalent deposits the parallel 

 divisions at Diirnten, Geneva, Eivoli, Lyons, Bourg, and Perrier are 

 given. G. A. L.

 Concludes, froin a comparison of the flood-lines of various rivers in 

 France, that the approximate age of terrace-deposits of certain eleva- 

 tions can be arrived at a priori. Gr. A. L.
