   The 
  fossil 
  Echinoidea 
  of 
  the 
  Kathiawar 
  collections 
  have 
  lately 
  been 
  

   examined 
  and 
  described 
  by 
  Professors

  and

  Besides 
  those 
  enumerated 
  in 
  the 
  above 
  lists, 
  the 
  collection 
  

   comprises 
  a 
  specimen 
  of 
  Cceloplewus 
  forbesi, 
  d'Arehiac 
  and 
  Hairne,from 
  

   near 
  Gaga; 
  a 
  new 
  genus 
  Grammechinus 
  (G. 
  regular 
  is), 
  Duncan 
  and 
  

   Sladen, 
  from 
  near 
  Lowardli, 
  in 
  Oka 
  Mandal; 
  a 
  Brissopsis, 
  sp. 
  indet., 
  

   two 
  miles 
  north 
  of 
  Visawara, 
  and 
  Breynia 
  carinata, 
  d'Arch. 
  and 
  Haim., 
  

   bringing 
  up 
  the 
  total 
  number 
  of 
  species 
  to 
  thirteen 
  (all 
  of 
  miocene 
  age), 
  

   of 
  which 
  six 
  are 
  common 
  to 
  Cutch 
  and 
  Kathiawar. 
  

  

  At 
  the 
  same 
  locality 
  in 
  Oka 
  Mandal 
  with 
  Grammechinus 
  regularis, 
  

   were 
  found 
  Pecten 
  soomroivensis, 
  C. 
  Sow., 
  P. 
  favrei, 
  d'Arch., 
  P. 
  (Vola) 
  

   snb-corneus, 
  d'Arch. 
  and 
  Haim., 
  and 
  casts 
  of 
  spirals. 
  

  

  The 
  scarped 
  hill 
  ridge 
  on 
  the 
  north 
  side 
  of 
  the 
  Bhogat 
  creek 
  mouth 
  

   is 
  formed 
  mostly 
  of 
  Gaj 
  beds 
  ; 
  here 
  also 
  the 
  above 
  three 
  species 
  of 
  Pecten 
  

   occur, 
  together 
  with 
  a 
  small 
  stunted 
  variety 
  of 
  Ostrea 
  multicostata, 
  

   Area 
  peethensis 
  (?), 
  d'Areh., 
  and 
  Bosinia 
  psetido-argus, 
  also 
  fragments 
  

   of 
  a 
  small 
  crab, 
  spines 
  of 
  Cidaris, 
  and 
  bryozoa, 
  &c. 
  Again, 
  two 
  miles 
  

   north-west 
  of 
  Bhogat 
  village, 
  similar 
  fossils 
  were 
  . 
  obtained, 
  together 
  

   with 
  Tellina 
  exarata, 
  C. 
  Sow., 
  T. 
  subdonacialis, 
  a 
  Spondylus, 
  and 
  a 
  Pla- 
  

   cuna 
  ; 
  TrocJius 
  loryi, 
  d'Arch. 
  and 
  Haim., 
  Cerithium 
  rude, 
  C. 
  Sow., 
  C. 
  

   corrugatum, 
  Uanella 
  viperina, 
  d'Arch. 
  and 
  Haim., 
  and 
  Strombus 
  gigas. 
  

   The 
  fossils 
  are 
  mostly 
  casts, 
  and 
  they 
  are 
  frequently 
  crowded 
  together 
  

   in 
  parts 
  of 
  the 
  rock. 
  

  

  Certain 
  of 
  the 
  beds 
  exposed 
  in 
  a 
  few 
  places 
  in 
  the 
  neighbourhood 
  of 
  

   Foraminifera 
  in 
  beds 
  Bhogat,— 
  as, 
  for 
  example, 
  a 
  pale 
  yellowish 
  shaly 
  

   near 
  Bhogat. 
  marl 
  in 
  the 
  stream 
  bank 
  two 
  miles 
  to 
  the 
  north- 
  

  

  east 
  of 
  that 
  village, 
  — 
  contain 
  small 
  foraminifera 
  and 
  other 
  organisms, 
  

   among 
  them 
  a 
  Conulites 
  (or 
  Patellina?), 
  which 
  is 
  not 
  unlike 
  a 
  nummu- 
  

   lite 
  in 
  shape, 
  though 
  differing 
  in 
  structure 
  ; 
  and 
  very 
  probably 
  the 
  dis- 
  

   covery 
  of 
  this 
  foraminifer 
  gave 
  rise 
  to 
  the 
  presumption 
  that 
  rocks 
  of 
  

   nummulitic 
  age 
  had 
  been 
  found 
  in 
  the 
  province.
