This is chiefly an examination of Zittel's monograph on the fauna of 



Stramberg. The points urged arc : — that the Gasteropoda of Stram- 



berg are those of the Terebratula- Moravica limestones of the rest of 



Europe ; that in the Alps of Eastern Switzerland the Di^iJiya-limcBtono 



overlies the T.-Moravica limestones ; that these two series are mixed 



together by Zittel ; and that this confusion arises from a fault, bringing 



the two series into apparent continuity, being ignored by Zittel. Tho 



ages of the Terebratula-Moravica and Am.-tenuilobatus zones are next 



discussed. The former belongs, according to M. Hubert, to the Coral 



Kag, notwithstanding that M. Mocsch regards it as post-Kimeridgian. 



The latter, which is usually considered as Kimoridgian, M, Hcbcrt says
