The Geology of the Whatatutu Subdivision, Raukumara Division, 

 Poverty Bay. By James Henry Adams. New Zealand Geo- 

 logical Survey, Bulletin No. 9 (New Series). Wellington, 

 1910. Pp. 48; maps 5; plates 3. 

 The Raukumara division lies on the eastern side of the North Island 

 of New Zealand and consists of a series of rolling ridges of moderate 

 height separated by deeply cut river valleys. The rocks belong chiefly 

 to the Whatatutu series which are upper Miocene in age and which are 

 folded into irregular anticlines and synclines. Indications of oil have 

 been found at various points within the region and the object of the 

 survey was to obtain information as to the possibilities of development. 

 With this end in view the anticlines and synclines were mapped and 

 described with considerable care. Fossils are abundant in some locali- 

 ties but have received little attention in this report.
