nS GUIDE TO THE AUSTRALIAN MUSEUM. 



THE GENERAL COLLECTION OF AUS- 

 TRALIAN PLANTS AND INVERTEBRATA, is 



placed in table-cases at the north end of the Geological Hall, 

 and is at present in a state of transition and re-arrangement. 



In the same hall, and contiguous to the latter are two cases of 

 Quaternary Foreign Mannnalian bones, both casts and originals. 

 These include skulls of Bear from the Caverne de Goyet, and 

 other caves; antlers of Deer from Post-Pliocene deposits of 

 Anvers, Belgium ; jaws of Rhinoceros and tusks of Elephas from 

 the same place ; skull of Anthracotherium from Auvergne ; and 

 the skull of Brotherium bombifrons from Kentucky. 



THE GENERAL FOREIGN COLLECTION is 

 placed in the table cases of the gallery around the Geological 

 Hall. Tliis series is arranged both zoologically and geologically, 

 in order to show the sequence of strata throughout the world, 

 and their typical organic remains. With the view of exemplify- 

 ing this in the clearest manner the fossils of each formation 

 are placed on differently coloured tablets.
