A. W. WATEES ON FOSSIL CHTLOSTOMATOTTS 



quite sure as to the locality of a few specimens, and therefore give the 

 two places from which they may have come. These are : — 



from Batesford Viaduct or Muddy Creek, 



Cellepora granum. 



fossa, Hasw. 



albicans, Hincks. 



Smittia turrita, 8m. 

 Microporella violacea, var. fissa. 



and from Muddy Creek or Bird Rock, 



Mucronella mucronata, Sm. 

 Microporella violacea, var. fissa. 

 coscinopora, var. armata. 



Schizoporella submersa, Waters. 

 Porina coronata, Ess. 

 Cellaria angustiloba, Busk. 



The collection consists of 62 species, of which 28 are now known 

 living, and 18 of these are found fossil for the first time. But no 

 doubt many of those as yet only known fossil will sometime be dis- 

 covered living ; for we must remember that although so much has 

 lately been added to our knowledge of recent species by such workers 

 as Hincks, MacGillivray, Haswell, &c, there yet remains much to be 

 done, and our knowledge of the Australian recent fauna is very im- 

 perfect. This brings the number of Australian fossil Chilostoma- 

 tous Bryozoa that I have discussed up to 155. To the indication 

 of the age of the deposits I shall have to return when I have my 

 communication on the Cyclostomatous Bryozoa ready. 



Three species in the present collection are believed to be identical 

 with fossils from the European Chalk.
