  On 
  the 
  classification 
  of 
  both 
  sedimentary 
  and 
  plutonic 
  formations 
  

   many 
  Reports 
  were 
  received 
  from 
  different 
  National 
  Committees. 
  

   Several 
  of 
  these 
  Eeports 
  contained 
  replies 
  to 
  particular 
  questions 
  

   that 
  had 
  been 
  circulated 
  as 
  to 
  the 
  classification 
  of 
  certain 
  sub- 
  

   divisions, 
  such 
  as 
  Gault 
  and 
  Rhgetic, 
  and 
  the 
  method 
  of 
  dealing 
  with 
  

   strata 
  of 
  indefinite 
  or 
  transitional 
  age, 
  such 
  as 
  the 
  Elysch. 
  

  

  One 
  very 
  important 
  proposition 
  was 
  brought 
  before 
  both 
  meetings 
  

   by 
  Prof. 
  Neumayr 
  — 
  that 
  of 
  the 
  publication 
  of 
  a 
  ' 
  Nomenclator 
  

   Palceontologicus' 
  to 
  contain 
  a 
  complete 
  list, 
  with 
  full 
  references 
  to 
  

   description, 
  locality, 
  and 
  stratigraphical 
  position, 
  of 
  all 
  fossil 
  species 
  

   of 
  animals 
  and 
  plants 
  described 
  up 
  to 
  the 
  date 
  of 
  publication. 
  The 
  

   plan 
  was 
  approved 
  by 
  the 
  Committee 
  and 
  received 
  most 
  favourably 
  

   by 
  the 
  Congress 
  of 
  Berlin. 
  Unfortunately, 
  financial 
  difficulties 
  have 
  

   hitherto 
  prevented 
  the 
  scheme 
  from 
  being 
  carried 
  out. 
  This 
  is 
  greatly 
  

   to 
  be 
  regretted 
  ; 
  it 
  is 
  difficult 
  to 
  name 
  an 
  undertaking 
  that 
  would

  From 
  a 
  note 
  by 
  Prof. 
  Renevier, 
  I 
  learn 
  that 
  this 
  term 
  will 
  be 
  replaced 
  in 
  

   the 
  published 
  map 
  by 
  Pleistocene.
