 necessary to append a classified list of the adopted names, 

 with references to the localities and materials treated of in the 

 * Mikrogeologie ' and the Berlin Academy ' Transactions.' 



In the following List, therefore, we have arranged the 

 genera treated of in their order, and have appended to the 

 species numbers corresponding with those divisions of the 

 foregoing memoir which contain references to or descriptions 

 of them. Thus: — I. From ^Egina (1), Greece. II. From
