Scarboro’ Heights, near Toronto where twenty-nine species have been 
found. Not one of thesecan be referred to existing species. The near- 
est allies of several are to be sought in the Lake Superior and Hudson 
Bay region, but the nearest allies of the larger part of them are to be 
found in the general district where the deposits occur. In no single 
instance have any special affinities been found with any characteristi- 
cally southern form, though several are most nearly allied to species 
found there as well as in the north. On the whole the fauna has a 
boreal aspect, though by no means so decidedly boreal as one would 
anticipate under the circumstances. 
3. Notes upon Myriapods and Arachnids found in Sigillarian stumps 
in the Nova Scotia coal field. Nearly fifty years ago Sir J. W. Dawson 
and Sir Chas. Lyell first called attention to this unique land fauna of 
Carboniferous time. From time to time additional species of Artic- 
ulates, Mollusks and Vertebrates have been discovered and described 
by Sir J. W. Dawson. The present paper by Professor Scudder gives 
notes and descriptions of ten species of myriapods and arachnids, 
some of which are new. Saae
