 Localities in Prov. Yun-nan. The Devonian formation attains an enomiovs 

 development in the province of Yun-nan ; the greater part of the Devonian 

 fossils bought by Richthofen from Chinese apothecaries and described 

 by Kayser were said to have been derived from Ta-kwan-tin^' in this 

 province.^' Lorenthev*' who microscopically examined limestones in the 

 SzECHENVi-LoczY Collection found Favosites and Stenopora in a limestone 

 from Suj-tschai, in the valley of the Lang-tsang-kiang, and Loczv^^ believed in 

 the Devonian age of the limestone. But as to our present knowledge of Devo- 

 nian palaeontology and stratigraphy of this province we are mostly indebted to 

 p-fench authorities, H. Douville,'^^ Leclerf/^ Lantenois/^ Defrat and Man-
