* " In 1845 or 1846, Mr. Turner, Superintendent of a Sheep-station on the Condamine, brought to Sydney a 

 large collection made by himself after various < freshets ' or floods in the creeks of the river had left the fossils 

 bare and protruding from the sides of the gulleys ; he disposed of them to a Mr. Benjamin Boyd, a merchant, 

 who soon after got embarrassed ; he sent the fossils to Europe for sale, but suffered our Museum to take casts 

 of all of them."— Letter from W. S. Macxeay, Esq., F.R.S., to the author, dated 9th March, 1858. The lower 

 jaw of Nototherium Mitchelli (Plate XXXVIII.) formed part of this collection, which was purchased for the 

 British Museum.
