description, publislied in the Eastern Province Magazine, Grahams- 

 town, 1857, Dr. Atherstone states that a large part of the skeleton 

 as well as the skull was discovered, but the only parts so far described 

 are two skulls named by Owen Anthodon serrarius. Very little is 

 known of this form, and Zittel places it in the Pareiasauridae as 

 a Karroo reptile. Dr. K. Broom described another Dinosaur from 

 the same beds at Despatch, near Port Elizabeth, under the naine 

 Algoasaurus Batiri? Messrs. llogers and Schwarz mention Dinosaur 

 bones as occurring in the sandy beds along the Bezuidenhouts River 

 in TJitenhage,'^ and some detached bones and teeth from these beds are 

 exhibited in the Albany Museum, Grahamstown. All these remains 

 are of comparatively small animals for Dinosaurs. In the recent 

 Whitsuntide holidays Professor E. H. L. Schwarz took his students 

 to the Bushman's Iliver, and in Dr. Atherstone's " Iguanodon Hoek " 

 they discovered the femur of one of the gigantic forms. The bone was 

 broken, and only the two ends were recovered ; the shaft, having only 

 slender walls, had splintered up, and for the most part had disappeared, 

 but when whole the bone was some five feet in length. A further 

 find of a smaller form was made a little lower down, but the bones 

 were very much decomposed and no attempt was made to dig them 

 out. A properly equipped expedition will be sent to the place by 

 the Albany Museum, and there is every prospect of obtaining one or 

 more of these gigantic skeletons. Close to the spot is the famous 

 Alum Cave, whence the mineral Bushmanite, a variety of Apjohnite, 

 is obtained.

The Geology of Upper Strathspey, Gaiok, and the Forest of 

 Atholl. By George Barrow, E.G.S., Lionel W. Hinxman, 

 B.A., F.R.S.E., and E. H. Cunningham Craig, B.A., with 

 contributions by H. Kynaston, B.A. 8vo ; pp. vi, 116, with 

 2 text-illustrations and 4 plates. Edinburgh : printed for His 

 Majesty's Stationery Office, 1913. Price 2s. 



ri^HE country described in this memoir is included in the Scottish 

 \_ colour-printed one-inch map, Sheet 64 (price 2s. %d.). It is 

 a mountainous area drained by the rivers Spey, Dee, Tilt, and Garry, 

 and it extends over portions of Inverness, Perth, Aberdeen, and 

 a small tract of Banff in the north-east. 



The Highland schists known as the ^foine Series occupy the 

 larger portion of the ground, from the Spey Valley, with the favourite 

 resort of Kingussie, over the western and east-central region, 

 including Glenfeshie Forest, Loch an t-Seilich, Gaick Forest, and the 

 northern part of the Forest of Atholl. This is a somewhat monotonous 

 tract of tableland, rising 2,500 to 2,750 feet, intersected by deep 

 trench-like valleys and with mountains that seldom reach 3,000 feet.
