Part IV. of Mr. R. Lydekker's Catalogue of the Fossil 

 Reptilia and Amphibia, (containing the orders Anomodontia, 

 the Ecaudata, the Caudata and Labyrinthodontia ; and a 

 supplement), pp. xxiv. and 296, with 66 woodcuts, appeard

 lection. 



Part II. of Mr. A. Smith Woodward's Catalogue of the 

 Fossil Fishes, illustrated with 16 plates and 54 woodcuts, is 

 all in type, and will be ready for publication early in 1891. 



Part II. of Mr. Arthur H. Foord's Catalogue of the Fossil 

 Cephalopoda, containing the Nautilidoi, is also all in type, and 

 will be ready for publication early in February. 



The list of genera and species of Eocene Mollusca in the 

 Edward's Collection (including the other " types," preserved 

 in the Wetherell, Dixon, and Bowerbank collections in the 

 Geological Department) is nearly complete, and will, it is 

 hoped, be ready for publication shortly. 



A classified list of casts of fossils reproduced from speci- 

 mens in the Department of Geology, was prepared and 

 printed by order of the Trustees in 1885. The list then num- 

 bered 236 specimens. 



A new and greatly augmented edition has just been pre- 

 pared
