One thousand three hundred and eighty-four Foreign 

 Cretaceous and other Mollusca, from various other horizons, 

 have also been mounted ready for incorporation in the cases. 



The British and Foreign Bryozoa have been under 

 examination. 



Sixty-two boxes of Jurassic and Carboniferous Bryozoa 

 have been placed in a supplementary Table-case ; and labels 

 have been printed for fifty-six boxes of Lower Tertiary 

 Bryozoa (all being types) arranged in Table-case 84. 



One hundred and thirty-two trays of Jurassic Bryozoa have 

 been arranged in drawers beneath Table-cases. 



Bryozoa registered 309. 



Wall-cases x. and xi., devoted to the Foreign Brachiopoda, 

 have been cleared of their contents in order to glaze the 

 tops of these cases, so as to afford a better light for the 

 objects exhibited. 



Wall-cases xvi., xvii., and xviii. have been similarly 

 treated ; their contents (Echinodermata) have been removed, 

 carefully dusted, and replaced in a better arrangement. 



Insecta and Crustacea (Wall-cases xii. and xiii.) — The 

 Foreign, Secondary, and Tertiary Insecta and Crustacea, 

 occupying these cases, have all been carefully tableted, and, as 

 far as possible, determined, and all the type specimens dis- 

 tinguished by green labels. 



The British Lower Palseozoic Crustacea have also been 

 named, tableted, and labelled. 



C— Plants. 



Fossil Plants (Gallery X.). — A series of Carboniferous 

 Plant-remains, and samples of the " Cores," obtained from 

 the Dover Coal-boring, have been placed on exhibition in a 

 table-case near the entrance to Gallery X. 



Historical Collections (Gallery XL) — Dr. Davidson's col- 

 lection of Brachiopoda, which occupies Table-cases 13, 14, and 

 15, and the Cabinets of Drawers beneath, is still under 

 arrangement ; 1,849 specimens have been mounted, registered, 

 and catalogued in slip-form ; nearly the whole of these have 

 been arranged in the Table-cases in this Gallery. 



The " Parker Collection of Foraminifera " is being 

 arranged. Prof. T. Rupert Jones has named and catalogued 

 a considerable proportion of the collection. The mounted 

 slides are all being carefully labelled and placed in order in a 

 series of Microscopic Slide-Boxes specially provided for their 

 reception.
