 mains in the Old Red or Devonian Strata of Moray. By 

 Capt. LambartBrickenden, F.G.S. With a Description of 

 the Telerpeton Elginense, and Observations on supposed

[The Reading of these Papers was deferred from December 1 7.] 



I BEG to submit to the Geological Society a brief notice of a discovery 

 of considerable interest, which I made during the last year, but was 

 prevented from communicating before the close of the last Session ; 

 a delay which I do not now regret, since a recent fact has come to 



vol. VIII. part I. H
