Note. — In the preparation of this list I am indebted to Dr. Lester F. Ward of the* 

 United States Geological Survey, for verifications of doubtful species of plants and to Pro- 

 fessor Whitfield for identification of the molluscs. All the species enumerated in the two 

 lists, together with many others not yet identified, are in the museum of the Natural Science 

 Association of Staten Island. 



A number of species first described from .Staten Island specimens are not included 

 for the reason that the geological age of such species might be questioned. (93)
