2nd. From the south-western end of Windy Gully, [Lower Callovian] Mr. 

 Newton 1. c. p. 650 describes a Belemnites sp. as resembling the Bel. inor- 

 natus Phill. Perhaps the guard figured by Newton (PI. XXIX. fig. 5) belongs 

 to the same species as the fragments of the large phragmocones from the same 

 locality, here noted as Belemnites sp. indet. 1., which seems also to be some- 

 what compressed. The relationship with Bel. inornatus Phill. is quite un- 

 certain. 



Together with this Belemnites sp., in the same piece of matrix. Dr. Kastt- 

 litz found a fi-agment of a large shell, which Newton (PI. XXIX. fig. 4) 

 determined as " Inoceramus-like" . If this form, which according to Dr. Kcett- 

 litz was certainly in situ, really belongs to Inoceramus, this is an interesting 

 fact, since untill today the occurrence of the genus Inoceramus in the Macro- 

 cephalites macrocephalus-zone of arctic regions was not known. 



3rd. A quarter of a mile NW. of Elmwood Dr. Ko^ttlitz found a frag- 

 ment of an Ammonite in situ, immediately below the basalt therefore higher in 

 the cliff than the Middle Callovian {Cadoceras Tchefkini horizon) (1. c. pag. 635, 

 638, 649). The specimen was embedded in decomposed basalt or basaltic tuff. 

 Mr. Newton determined the specimen as Amm. Lamberti (1. c. PL XXIX. 

 fig. 2.), and deduces from it, that the beds below the basalt are of Oxfordian 

 age and that the Oxford-clay occurs at Cape Flora. 



Though it is impossible to decide, whether the figured fragment be the 

 true Amm. Lamberti Sow., it is clear, that it must belong to the genus 

 Quenstedtoceras. Therefore we have here a second proof of the occurrence 

 of the Upper Callovian (Zone of Quenstedtoceras Lamberti = Zone of 

 Peltoceras athleta), the first proof having been given by Quenstedtoceras 

 vertumnum, Sintz (cf. pag. 96). 



4th. The occurrence of Jurassic plant-remains at Cape Bichthofen, recog- 

 nized by Prof. Nathorst as corresponding with those of Cape Flora, proves that 

 the land of post-Gallovian-time in the Franz Josef Land Archipelago extended 

 from Northbrook Island towards the North and North-East (cf. pag. 143).
