Soc. Nat. Hist., Vol. vit. 
U. P. James, in the Journ. Cincinnati Soc. Nat. Hist., Vol. vu, 
publishes three articles; in the April number he describes three 
fossils from the Cincinnati group. In the October number he 
describes four new species of fossils from the Cincinnati group; 
and in the same number he has also an article “ On Conodonts 
and fossil annelid jaws.” 
T. R. Jones and J. W. Kirby, in the Geological Magazine for

Progress P., Vol. 111, finishes his description of the coal flora of 
the Carboniferous formation in Pennsylvania and throughout the 
United States. This contains also additions and corrections to 
the first two parts previously published. 
In the 13th annual report of the Indiana Department of Geol- 
ogy and Natural History, the same author publishes “ Principles 
of Palzozoic Botany,” an excellent elementary treatise. The Indi- 
ana Geol. Surv. has done excellent work in the way of popular

manently discontinued. In the AMERICAN NATURALIST for Sep- 
tember the author has an article on “ The Carboniferous flora of 
Rhode Island.”

of the fauna of the St. John group, No. 1, The Paradoxides,” and 
a supplementary section describing the parts of the previously 
described species.
