specimens from the Permo-Carboniferous of New South Wales ; 

 a series from the Triassic and Rhsetic beds of the Bavarian 

 Alps ; Triassic and Liassic specimens from Asia Minor ; Jurassic 

 Ammonites from Hungary; described and figured examples 

 from the Jurassic i^ocks of S.W. Arabia ; specimens from the 

 Neocomian of the S.E. of France ; a series of Albian Ammonites 

 from the Ardennes ; Cretaceous specimens, chiefly from Kent ; 

 Senonian Belemnites from the South of Sweden; and various 

 other recent acquisitions. 



The additions to the exhibited series include 52 Nautiloids, 

 24 Ammonoids, and 30 Belemnoids. Of these, 8 have been 

 mounted on blocks and furnished with printed labels ; the rest 

 have been mounted on tablets, and many of them provided with 

 printed labels. Two Palaeozoic Nautiloids have been mounted 

 in the small exhibition case between wall-cases 1 and 2. In the 

 four new small exhibition cases, which have been made for 

 Gallery 7, the following have been mounted and provided with 

 printed labels : — a large slab of Inferior Oolite limestone 

 containing Ammonites and Belemnites ; a Cretaceous Am- 

 monite ; two Dibranchiates (Letpoteuthis) ; and four slabs 

 including Belemnites. 



The naming of part of the exhibited series of both British 

 and Foreign Cretaceous Ammonites has been revised. 



Considerable progress has been made with the re-labelling 

 and re-arrangement of the unexhibited Palaeozoic Nautiloids 

 and Upper Jurassic Ammonites. 



The unexhibited Belemnoids have been removed from table- 

 case 2 and arranged in drawers beneath table-case 16. 



The List of types, figured and historical specimens of 

 Fossil Cephalopoda, has been continued. 



The exhibited series of British Cambrian Gastropoda and 

 Lamellibranchia has been extended and provided with new 

 printed labels. 



The slip-catalogue of the types, figured and historical 

 specimens of Palaeozoic Gastropoda and Lamellibranchia is stilL 

 in progress. 



The exhibited collection of British Liassic Lamellibranchia in 

 table case 14, comprising nearly 400 specimens, has been re- 

 arranged, re-tableted, and re-labelled. The unexhibited part of 

 the same collection has also been arranged in drawers. 



The J. F. Blake Collection of British and French Jurassic 

 Lamellibranchia and Gastropoda has been incorporated, and 

 about 40 type-specimens have been tableted and labelled for 

 exhibition. 



About 90 specimens of British Cretaceous Lamellibranchia 

 described and figured by Mr. H. Woods in his Monograph of 

 the Palseontographical Society, have been tableted, labelled, 

 and added to the exhibited collection.
