(2.) ^S*^. Joose-ten-Noode. 



At this locality, in the eastern suburbs of Brussels, are some pits 

 near the high-road to Louvain, in which many fossils have been ob- 

 tained, agreeing for the most part with those of Auderghem. Those 

 five species, for example, to which an asterisk is prefixed in the pre- 

 ceding list, occur at St. Joose-ten-Noode, and with them

One or two of these species, as Tellina rostralis, are shells usually 

 confined to the Laeken beds. At Groenendal, three miles south of 

 Brussels, many of the Auderghem shells are found in a ferruginous 

 matrix.

The stone quarries at Schaerbeek, in the northern suburbs of 

 Brussels, have long been celebrated for the fossil Fruits, called Cocoa- 

 nuts, and for fossil Tortoises, found there in concretionary nodules. It
