Dear Sir, 



There are t^o or three small 

 mistakes as to names of localities in 

 your paper on Chilos. Bryozoa from ~N.Z. 

 in ^.J.G.S. Peb, 18d7 which I am sure you 

 would like to correct. 



.whakati is 14 miles north of Napier, 

 quite different from Waikato. 



Trig's Station - should be Trig. Station, 

 Petane. It is the common colloquial for 

 Trigonometrical Station of the Survey. 



Hapier has beds of two ages, Pliocene and 

 Miocene, probably the fossils have got 

 mixed. retane is Pliocene only. tfaipuku- 

 rau is probably I,iocene only, but Pliocene 

 beds do occur a few miles off. 



The 'first ana second collections sent 

 you were collected by a. Hamilton, Curator 

 of the Museum at Napier and a most enthus- 

 iastic collector and naturalist. 



~:e is rather annoyed at your calling 

 him "the Napier correspondent 11 , and I hope 

 you will get an opportunity of mentioning 

 his name as the collector. I believe he 

 has sent further collections to you. 



Yours truly, 

 P. I. Mutton.
