246 CENSUS OF THE OLDER TERTIARY FAUNA OF AUSTRALIA. 



The community of species is absolutely small and is very much 

 less than pertains to the recent faunas ; thus the number of living 

 testaceous mollusca in the New Zealand area migrants from 

 Australia is as much as 18 "8 per cent, of the whole; whilst the 

 Australian Old Tertiary species occurring in corresponding 

 deposits in New Zealand is only 3*45 per cent, of the Australian 

 fauna : or to express the relationship in terms of the New Zealand 

 Old Tertiary fauna, 36 of a total 288, or 12-8 per cent, are common 

 to New Zealand and Australia. These data are not of sufficient 

 value to bring the subdivisions of the Older Tertiary strata of the 

 two areas into close relationship.
