Dr. C. I. Forsyth Major, F.Z.S., exhibited some remains of 

 Anthracothernim obtained by Mr. Oldfield Thomas, F.R.S., from 

 a lignite deposit in Majorca. These remains consisted of two 

 second upper molars and a beautifully presei-ved penultimate 

 right upper premolar, agreeing with Anthracothermm mag7iu'ni 

 Cuv., the predominant mammalian species in the lignite of 

 Cadibona (Liguria). The age of the Tertiary lacustrine forma- 

 tion of Majorca was thus established to be Middle Oligocene, 

 whereas it had generally been assigned to the Lower Eocene, 

 although Jules Haime had, in 1855, rightly guessed the true age. 



Mr. F. E. Beddard, F.R.S., exhibited and made remarks upon 

 a series of Avain brains of which the arterial system had been 

 injected. 



A paper was read by Messrs. Oldfield Thomas, F.R.S. , and 

 Harold Schwann, F.Z.S., giving an account of the Mammals 

 obtained by the late Mr. W. G. Doggett on the Anglo-German 

 Boundary Commission, and presented to the National Museum 

 by the Commissioner, Col. C. Delme Radclifie. 



Twenty-one species were referred to, and the following described
