osus, var., Agnosti of three other species, and Microdiscus punctatus, 

 From Highland Cove in the same bay, Paradoxides davidis, Gentro- 

 pleura loveni, Agnostus punctuosus, var., A. brevifrons, A. Iwvigatus, A. 

 acadicus, var. declivis. 



In connection with the study of the stratigraphy of the Cambrian 

 rocks of Newfoundland, the writer described ] a number of species from 

 the lower or Olenellus zone, and the middle or Paradoxides zone. 

 From the former there were Obolella atlantica, Goleoloides, n. gen., 

 Goleoloides typicalis, Hyolithes terranovicus, H. similis, Helenia, n. gen., 

 Helenia bella, Microdiscus helena, Olenellus (M.) brbggeri, Avalonia, n. 

 gen., Avalonia manuelensis, Solenopleura harveyi and &. howleyi. From 

 the Paradoxides zone there was described the genus Karlia and the 

 species if. minor. 2 



In 1890 Mr. O. D. Walcott 3 described Agraulos strenuus, var. nasutus, 

 from Manuel's Brook. 



NEW BltUNSWICK AND CAPE BRETON. 



The first description of the Cambrian fauna as found at St. John, 

 New Brunswick, by Mr. C. Fred. Hartt 4 included the following species : 

 Eocystites primeevus Billings, Lingula matthewi, Lingula, n. s., Obolella 

 transversa, Discina acadica, Orthis billingsi, Orthis, n. sp., Conocephalites 

 baileyi, C. matthewi, C. robbi, G. orestes, 0. elegans, G. ouangondianus, (7. 

 tener, G. aurora, G. thersites, G. gemini-spinosus, G. halli, G. quadratics, G. 

 neglectns, G. formosus, Gonocephalites, n. sp. (f), Microdiscus dawsoni, 

 Agnostus aeddicus, Agnostus similis, Paradoxides lamellatus. 



It appears that the Eocystites primeevus was submitted to Mr. Billings, 

 to name the genus and species, in manuscript, and was printed in con- 

 nection with Mr. Hartt's paper. The Paradoxides micmac, figured by 

 Dr. Dawson at the close of Mr. Hartt's paper, was named by the latter 

 in manuscript. The figure is a restoration, aud no description accom- 

 panies it. In the report of Messrs. Bailey aud Matthew 5 it is stated 

 that Mr. E. Billings identified from the St. John group, in the Kenne. 

 becasis Valley, fragments of Paradoxides and the pygidium of an 

 Agnostus, three species of Conocephalites, one of Ellipsocephalus, one 

 of Agnostus, what appeared to be a fragment of Salterella, and speci- 

 mens of Pahieophycus of two or three kinds. Among the collections 

 examined by Prof. J. F. Wuiteaves for Professor Bailey 6 there is a new
