Elobi Islands. — We are indebted to Dr. Szajnocha for report- 
ing the presence of Schlcenhachia inflata, J. Sowerby sp., in the 
rocks of the Elobi Islands, a characteristic zonal species of the 
Lower Cenomanian period, and which Choffat recognises as 
Vraconnian. 
Angola. — An interesting memoir has been published by M. Paul 
Choffat \-\ on the littoral regions of Angola where Cretaceous fossils 
have been discovered belonging to the Albian {Acanthoceras mammil- 
latum, &c.), YrsiGonmajn[Schlmnbachia inflata), Cenomanian-Turonian 
(Inoceramiis langi, Choffat, Actceonella, Cyprina ivensi, Choffat), 
and Senonian {Cardita barronneti, Munier-Ch almas, Bondaireia
