 series. 



MouRLON, M. Observations sur la position du Paniselien dans la scrie 



eocene h. propos d'un travail recent de M. Ed. Hebert. [Position 



of the Paniselian in the Eocene series.] Proc.-verb. Soc. Mai. 



Belg. t. iii. pp. xxxiv-xxxviii. 



Urges that the Paniselian should be kept in the Middle Eocene, since 



M. Hebert's palaeontological grounds for merging it in the Ypresian 



in the Lower Eocene are doubtful. G. A. L. 



. Observations on M. Cogers second paper on the Terehratula- 



grandis deposit near Antwerp. Proc.-verb. Soc. Mai. Belg. t. iii. 

 pp. xlvi-lii. 

 Mineralogically this deposit differs from the underlying black Diestian 

 eand. Palseontologically it contains a fauna much more Scaldisian 

 than Diestian. The Terebratula-bed is therefore, in the author's 

 opinion, the base of the Scaldisian (Pliocene), and gives the first junction 

 yet observed in this district between this series and the Miocene 

 Diestian. G. A. L.

 Continued criticism of M. Cogel's opinion as to the geological position 

 of the green sands with T. grandis near Antwerp.

 Divides the formation of the deposits into five stages : — 1. The time 

 of the first spreading of the ice to which the oldest glacial striae belong, 

 when the bottom moraine gravel filled up the lowlands. 2. A sinking 

 of the land, with an accompanying shrinking back of the ice. Shore- 

 deposits belong to this period. 3. The maximum sinking-point reached, 

 when the glacial clays were terraced. 4. Eising of the land. This 

 was the time of the denudation of the asar, and of the deposition of 

 sands and boulders. 5. A continued rising of the land to the present 

 day. G. A. L.
