CLASS POLTZOA. 



The Eev. J. E. Teiiison "Woods, in Trans. Roy. Soc, Victoria, 

 vol. vi., applied new names to some of the forms figured by 

 Sturt, but these have been ignored by Mr. Waters in his 

 several papers dealing with this class in the Older Tertiary of 

 Australia. 



Mr. Woods has, moreover described and figured from the 

 Murravian deposits, the following Selenariada : — Cupularia 

 rutella and Selenaria alata. Trans. Roy. Soc, S. Aust., vol. iii., 

 1880. 



Mr. Waters has recently occupied himself with the deter- 

 mination of the Cyclostamatous and Chilostomatous species 

 occurring in the River Murray cliffs from material furnished 

 by me. His paper will appear in a forthcoming number of the 

 Proceedings of the Geological Societ}^ of London ; in the 

 meanwhile an approximate summary of his results, as com- 

 municated by letter to me, is given at p. 18.

The coral fauna of the Murray Cliffs has been catalogued by
