 Notices the occurrence in the Carboniferous formation of the Amazons 

 basin of Brachiopods, which prove the deposits to be of the age of the 

 Coal Measures ; also the occurrence of Spirifera camerata and Metzia 

 jputictulifera in a collection of Peruvian fossils. This indicates the 

 occurrence of Carboniferous beds about 6° north of Lake Titicaca.
