26 A. 8. Woodioard and C. D. 8herborn's Catalogue — 



be regarded as the first supplement to the work in question ; and it 

 is hoped, by the courtesy of the Editor, to issue such a list of additions 

 annualljr in the Geological Magazine. 



With regard to general corrections it must be remarked, that the 

 memoir of Mr. J, Ward, forming Vol. X. of the Trans. N. Staffs. 

 Inst. Mining Engin., frequently quoted in connection with Carboni- 

 ferous fishes, was not issued until February 1890, the publication 

 having been delayed by unforeseen circumstances. Mr. J. Weston, 

 of Feuton, should have been mentioned as the collector of a fine 

 series of fishes from the Staffordshire Coal-measures, which will 

 shortly become the property of the British Museum. In connection 

 with the Carboniferous fishes of the Edinburgh Coal-field, the writers 

 also regret to add that they failed to distinguish between the private 

 and public collections made and extended by Dr. E. H. Traquair, as 

 Keeper of the Natural History Department in the Edinburgh 

 Museum. In this case, however, it is not possible to rectify the 

 error at present, there being no list or catalogue of either of these 

 collections. 



A few names applied by Owen to London Clay Teleosteans, in 

 the Cat. Foss. Eept. Pisces Mus. E. Coll. Surgeons, were also over- 

 looked ; but most of these refer to species already recorded under 

 the MS. names of Agassiz, and it is thus proposed to defer entering 

 them until the synonymy has been investigated.
